Jerry on 105.3 about Shaq Leonard and Eagles/Niners rematch

[rambo2]

If we never discussed money, then we never made an offer. Philly discusses money what does he have to choose from???

The money is the same.

 

[AsthmaField]

Broaddus on 105.3 said Leonard chose the eagles because he has former teammates and friends on that squad. True? Beats me.

Sirianni was a coach in Indy with Leonard. They already have a relationship.

 

[davey999]

I think we can beat the Eagles this week, but if the Niners stay relatively healthy, we have no chance against them. NONE

 

[Davidlee1973]

The offer for both places was the league minimum. Indy was always going to pay the rest. That is why finances weren’t discussed.

Guarantee the eagles gave him more. They signed him to a one year deal. Jerry also said we like our guys.

That’s false.

He makes $6 million guaranteed.

So if Dallas offers him $2 million and Philly offers him $1 million. He only makes $6 million. Whatever Dallas / Philly offer deducts from the Colts salary.

He Signed for veteran minimum at $

$1,080,000

We were not healthy when we played them. Does that count or not? Does it meet the narrative or does it not matter for fans?

The eagles signed him for the vet minimum. You can’t pay him less than that man.

He’s making $6M from Indy this year. If Philly pays him more than minimum, it just means Indy pays less.

You should be more careful about your guarantees.

Lol, good luck trying to cut through this guy’s preconceived notions.

 

[Chasing6]

So what you're saying is we could not have offered more or a multi year contract?

 

[davey999]

We were not healthy when we played them. Does that count or not? Does it meet the narrative or does it not matter for fans?

IMO, it doesn't. If the Niners are healthy, they will kill us.

 

[jazzcat22]

IMO, it doesn't. If the teams are BOTH relatively healthy, they have a much better team.

Better overall coached is the difference to me. Better disciplined.

 

[AsthmaField]

So what you're saying is we could not have offered more or a multi year contract?

For him to make more than the $6M that Indy owes for this year, Dallas or Philly would have to be above that number for this season. Nobody in their right mind would pay a broken down, has-been LB that kind of money (or a multi year contract).

He was always going to get minimum no matter who signed him.

 

[Ranching]

Screw him

It has been explained ad nausem the money doesn't matter, there is no new money for Leonard this year.

Exactly.

 

[The Fonz]

Is Leonard the piece the Eagles need to beat the 9ers?

No.

Would Leonard be the piece to propel Dallas past both the 9ers and Eagles?

No.

So, was this a big loss for Dallas?

The player has had issues with health, and is not the same guy he once was. Else why was he demoted at the Colts, and ultimately asked to be released, and it was granted. The Colts still owed him around six million.

I'm not going to cry crocodile tears over this guy signing with the Eagles.

Well said my friend 100% that is the case

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

Cutting between the BS, I suspect that after watching Philly's LBs look like actual poop, he viewed that as a spot where he could play a lot more than he would here.

I mean not only that but they have the best record in the league.

My only question is why did it take him so long to decide? He wanted to wait after they play the Niners? Just made no sense but yeah I dislike the Eagles and honestly think he would’ve been a bette fit for Quinn but Eagles were the right choice he gets to showcase himself.

Screw them everyone can be beaten.

They never even made an offer. Let that sink in.

He may not have wanted an offer. It may have simply been deciding between the 2 teams before he talked about money.
