Twitter: Jason Peters resolution won't happen until Friday

[terra]

Who has the cap space to pay him more than Dallas?

several teams have more; and the Browns have about 3 times as much

 

[rambo2]

Well for a team that does the bare minimum in free agency what are we supposed to do?

Sign good players like Kearse, Hooker, Fowler, Barr, Turpin, and Peters.

 

[ESisback]

Not on Offense
Not on Defense

Several? How many are interested in him? Why would he want to play for Cleveland when he can play for the Cowboys?

Signing a broken down, out-of-shape, 40-year-old (41 in Jan) LT, that nobody else wanted, for too much money will be hailed as the signing of the year.

Disagree

Not a single scout/media member in Dallas agrees with this

Live shot outside The Star:

Is that Risen with the chainsaw?

 

[john van brocklin]

Maybe.

Just wishing some good vibes as opposed to negative

I hear ya!
Hope it happens!
Be positive !

Not a Peters fan I take it

How did you know ?
Does he have Eagle's gear on ?

Not his Agent anyway !

 

[Kingofholland]

I’d wager he’s asking for more than that. His agent knows the team is desperate and is maybe asking for 8-10 million for a 1 year rental.

He got 1.75 million last year with the Bears so it likely will be in that ballpark.

They better be careful. They think he’s there for Jerry… but he may be going after Prescott.

 

[ESisback]

Apologies for my different opinion, but I still disagree. With chuckles and eyerolls.

If waste of money then why waste time and resources meeting him and having him go thru physicals?

As for broken down.

I wish McGovern was this washed up.

 

[Cowboys22]

Did he say that on the radio show he shouldnt have?

Why not? This isn’t some highly prized free agent that numerous other teams want to sign. He has been available all offseason with no interest. Everyone knows he is in Dallas so what’s the big deal saying they will meet shortly? Do you fear his agent’s phone will suddenly start blowing up with higher offers just because he is in Dallas?

 

[Jarntt]

Here's the problem.

If you pay a guy far less than what he thinks he's worth, he'll give you far less of what he has on the field. If both sides aren't satisfield with an amount, it's best to not sign the player rather than end up with a malcontent who isn't committed.

Hard-balling too much hurts your return on your investment. Always.

Stephen needs to learn this.

I totally disagree with that. Maybe that is the case with people with no work ethic and who have no pride in what they do but if a guy is going to not give 100% on national tv the problem is the guy, not the money. Also, if a player wants to play the next year they need to put up good tape.

Does ... " ... meetings to come ..." ... translates to ... " ... laying out the buffet ... "

JP & MM discuss it over lunch.

Don't forget the wine my dear man...

Not at all. I just hate that Jerry has to say to the public every asinine, stupid thought that goes thru his mind. I also hate that the Owner of the team even has his own radio show.
