The holdout seems to be coming to an end

...lol.... @$50k a day. Best to fire the agent and replace one, with better pragmatism.

Great news!!! Whatever happens as far as his contract goes we need him. Him and Parsons are our best players. We need both to be successful.

If he sent this before holding out I dont think it’s any indication of how lng or short it could be. if he felt it was on the verge of being signed he wouldn’t have held out.

And I can’t remember the last time a guy held out and actually had to pay the fine.

People worry too much about stupid things.

The unfortunate part about Martin missing practices has nothing to do with Martin. He will be there come week 1 and be his same dominating self. The unfortunate part about Martin missing practices is that guys like Mazi, Osa, ect. get better by practicing against Martin.

Misleading - nothing suggests the holdout will end soon. This was send before camp, not today

Pay the man. There is no more deserving player on the team. There is no better OG in the league.

Martin has done everything the team has asked from him since day one. He deserves to be compensated like he’s the best of the best, because he is.

In the pits both sides of the ball

It also suggests that he thinks this will be worked out soon. Nothing to see here.

I didn't think this was going to last long. It's probably an easy deal to get done- just pay what Martin wants as an up-front bonus and spread the cap hit out across future seasons. If there is one player worth this investment it's him. I think he has at least another four years of peak level play left.

you get that money brother before you come back. Your career is short-lived, "get that money boy. Don't worry about a man's money"

This is true, but I'm sure Tyler Smith has been in contact with Martin since then. And if I'm not mistaken Tyler mentioned this today.

Teams can't waive it anymore. He'll pay it via deduction or out of pocket.
The old days of teams waiving fines for missing is over

Didn’t know that. Makes sense though.

Lol got dang Tyler, don't be a blue falcon.
