Martin texts O-Line: "I'll be there soon"

[Hardline]

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.

Who is that on your avatar?

In the pits both sides of the ball

Bingo, and that’s where games are won and lost. Got to keep the trenches fortified.

He was he was the highest paid guard in the league.

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

It’s like anything else—some insist on negativity, others remain optimistic.

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

And it’s mandatory that he pay.

his deal was the richest a guard has ever received in 2018. He's being paid. The $ increase will come later in the year or next. Just get his tail into camp now.

Zack, set your ego aside young man. Get here. It will all get worked out down the line, pun intended.

 

[DandyDon52]

if you make a dirty hit on someone, it is 10k , but missing 1 day of TC is 50 k???????????? boy that makes sense.
I imagine martin at his age would just like to avoid TC, not as a holdout, but it is almost not needed for him.

Is the fine paid to a charity of the finee’s choice?

nah, Martin seems to be a smart men. At this point the $50K a day penalty is paid directly from the Agent's fee / commission.

Exactly.

That was the dumbest thing any player has done in a good decade or so.

Definitely not pragmatic. And kinda shows his true colors.

Was..

That's the deal here. He knows he's declining.

Looks like a man.

Is the fine paid to a charity of the finee’s choice?

No. The fine money goes to the league, whom distributes it to charities, along with a fund that assists former NFL players in need.

"Despite his absence, Martin has remained in communication with the offensive line group to keep the spirits high going into 2023."

The context to his message is not based on a factual report, he just doesn't want his teammates to be concerned to the point that they lose some focus.

 

[America's Cowboy]

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.

Hmm, I like both Zack and Micah, but the season can still be successful without one or the other. IF DAK IS LOST, the season is over. Guaranteed.

Who was our last big name player who actually had to pay up for holding out?

Seems like the fines all get forgotten once the new deal is made.

I thought they *definitely* should have fined Zeke when he held out under his rookie contract. Instead, he got a bit fat extension.

 

[Techsass]

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

I guess they could add it to whatever they work out with Martin. I'm still wondering if it's a more money thing or getting next year's money gauranteed.
