I've seen enough, lets get DLaw signed

[Hawkeye0202]

He's shown everything you want in an elite player worthy of the huge second contract. Let's get him signed NOW. Maybe we can save $$$$ vs signing at the end of year.

**Dominant ......picking up right where he left off last year, maybe even better
**Leadership....love the way he taking control/ownership of the DLine. In fact, you can make a case he's shown more on-field leadership than DeMarcus Ware.
**Face of the team...pretty sure most have seen the commercial showing his community involvement.

cant disagree pay the man

 

[blueblood70]

NO he needs to stay healthy for 16 games and not have suspension..if that happens you sign him asap but right now we didnt sign him to see how hed hold up for another 16..

Yes, let's let a top 5 LDE walk because blueblood70 isn't sold yet.

Just leave the check black, Mr. Jones. Let him sign however many 0s he wants

Can they sign him now or do they have to wait till the season is over? Not sure how the franchise tag works once the season starts.

 

[Zordon]

He should have been signed by now.

For real, dude is a baller. Worked his way up to being one of the best DEs in the league.

They have to wait at this point.

And the numbers have gone WAAAAAAYYYYYYY UP from the point that they could have signed him to an extension.

They can't sign him now.

 

[BigD49]

Price goes up every game....and I couldn't be happier about it, as it means DLaw is out there balling for us

I think the date to sign him is past after he signed the franchise tag. it will be an off season matter. doubt they'll let him walk.

 

[Hawkeye0202]

What most impressive to me is how he leading the young players and don't think for a second they are not looking up to him. You won't hear them talk about it on public airwaves but his $17M salary is what every player dreamed and worked for since their pee wee days. He's embracing that leadership to push the guys to next level. As for the health ( back ) and suspension issue, that thing of the past IMO.

 

[Jimbo69]

This is one big money contract i feel is merited.

 

[blueblood70]

Lets pay him like we did Dez and Romo only to have them on IR and not be productive as they should be post contract.. funny you use my name but you are not the GM and FO and obviously they agree with me as they put him on a FT for the very reason I listed..but hey go call up Jerry and SJ and TELL them how you feel they should run their business.. BTW we dont have to let him walk, we can use the FT again and again if needed but if he holds up this year he will get his LTC.. hes high risk due to his back, we've seen that story before..just enjoy the game and let the FO worry about tags and contracts.. Oakland let Mack go maybe you should have called Gruden and begged them to keep him as well ) its the ugly business side..et me know what the joneses have to say after you get them on the phone ))))

If I'm Demarcus Lawrence, I don't want to listen to contract talks now...he's got a whole season to raise the price tag and he stands to make more now by sticking with the franchise tag. It wouldn't make financial sense for him to sign anything at this point...and you can bet his agent is not taking calls right now either.

You know what, I admit I'm not sure if we have to wait until end of season......

Agreed, pay the man.

Yup, if he has back to back seasons with 14+ sacks and leading the NFL in pressures, it's going to go up to Aaron Donald and Khalil Mack numbers. Good job, front office.
