Twitter: Dez show his support for Zeke

[G2]

Not all early picks deserve a pay raise

The team deserves to have him honor his contract. Elliott actually owes the team since he can't quite stay out of trouble.

All early picks won't hold out. Thinking they would is what owners would want you to believe.

Do you have proof?

Yes...

As long as teams can cut players, players should be able to hold out. Works both ways.

"But I don't care if the team cuts unimportant players. I get mad when good players hold out."

Honor the contract

 

[GimmeTheBall!]

Dez would join you in Cabo, Zeke, but he has to watch his money closely.

That's on the NFLPA about being able to cut players.
But to hold out and not honor a contract? That, bloke, is chicken feet. Hold out. Withhold his salary. That's another thing that's allowed in the NFL contracts. Works both ways, bribon.

Its a 5th year option. It protects the owners when they have a valuable player.

Zeke is doing what Emmitt did after his third year.

Wrong. Emmitt didn’t have a contract. That’s a huge difference

 

[Frosty]

Dez is right.

who is this DEZ guy everyone keeps talking about....... dude must of been a DIVA WR who was injured, paid handsomely and is out of NFL.....a real winner. 70mil contract, hurt and now sets on the couch

 

[DejectedFan1996]

Just playing devils advocate here for a second. Perhaps he’s saying he played thru a lot of injuries and should have gotten compensated sooner.

This is exactly what’s he’s saying but the clowns on this board are too dumb to realize it.

He should have sat like Julio did in 2015 instead of rushing back from injury only to get hurt again that same year. Then he rushed back from the injury in 2016 too only to play through injuries and in the playoffs still putting up 8 catches 150 yards and 2 TDs

Then what’s the point in giving them guaranteed money? So hypothetically they could give Zeke 50 mil guaranteed and he decides he doesn’t want to play anymore or decides he wants even more money a year down the road, what guarantees do the owners have that they can get that money back?

The players already got a large chunk of their money and many will be set for life off that guaranteed money, what do the owners get if that player decides he wants to sit?

The contract part of the NFL is the least interesting to me.

I get real nervous when people speaking a language I can't understand........

I was a coach. I'll leave the GM stuff to you.

I'll leave that up to the business people, I just want the best players on the field.

The they should get rid of the salary cap which I’m personally not a fan of.
