That is a rather silly hill to die on. So they would have 30 days to either pick up his option or create 60 mil in cap, take it up with Florio on his definition of "immediately"
Or
Change it to " Late August" and all still applies.
Doesn't change anything.

“No team can ever have enough quality offensive tackles. And as the NFL evolves, defensive players get more and more athletic. This means your offensive tackles must be much more than just masses of humanity, immobile albeit immovable objects.
But not Lousiville offensive tackle Trevor Reid. Reid at 6-foot-4 and 311 pounds is a remarkable athlete. He proved that once again at the Louisville pro day when he shined with some of the most impressive workout numbers of the offseason by an offensive lineman.
Reid posted a 38-inch vertical and 10-4 broad jump and a 4.90-second 40-yard dash. These would have all been the best numbers by an offensive lineman at the NFL Scouting Combine.”

For Fields to be under 800 yards rushing the Bears have to fix that OL. Find that RT in the draft and give Fields the time to find his WR's in that intermediate range 10 to 20 yards down field.

Could be but a running threat helps his passing. To be clear, I think his passing is underrated and like him a lot overall but does his passing warrant the top contract?

That wasnt actually a problem for Fields. He had a 107 passer rating on those plays and 70% adjusted accuracy which is top 10. His problem was he sucked throwing short as he was 30th in accuracy on passes behind the LoS and 0-9 yards.
So while we should improve the OL, I dont actually think that is what was holding him back. He has to get much better taking the short stuff and being accurate in the short game which Poles, Flus, Getsy and Fields have all said in one form or fashion.

lol, the article was not wrong, sorry, but nice try. I might have missed one small mention of July, yet that doesn't change a thing.
This coming from the person that doesn't have a clue about the differences between a roster bonus and a signing bonus, claims a roster bonus can be "recouped" in arbitration, then tries to speculate there is some "hidden" contract lingo that no one is aware of, when this contract has been gone over in complete detail by hundreds of people.
You truly are pathetic. Your out because you just had your ass handed to you.

I’d love this guy in a trade down. Big, athletic and has played right and left OT in the SEC…
He has a nasty streak too.

He's also talked with great awareness about his need to be better in the short passing game and that would be the focus of his work this offseason. I wouldn't doubt Fields getting better wherever he needs to, it's just a matter of how much.

I already addressed the roster bonus issue.
Two team executives who handle contract negotiations and salary-cap matters for their clubs told NFL Network's Mike Garafolo that Indy could take back $12.8 million in signing-bonus proration as well as a $4 million prorated roster bonus. Because Luck has three years left on his contract, only one-third of the $12 million roster bonus he earned in March would be considered recoupable.
Colts not recouping Andrew Luck's $16.8M in bonuses
The Colts will not recoup any of the $16.8 million QB Andrew Luck owes the team in the wake of his stunning retirement, Ian Rapoport reports. Luck was entering Year 3 of a five-year extension.
www.google.com
Here are team execs noting that when Luck retired the team could have gone after his pro rated roster bonus. So again just blindly accepting what an agent said is dumb. I already told you that NFL teams likely disagree with that agents take and this is proof.
The end.

This draft seems replete with big long athletic OT's that could contribute day 1. P Johnson, D Jones, B Jones, C Mauch, A Harrison, B Freeman, B Daniels. I think the worst move would be to spend a 1st on Pete Wallaby Skronski. Johnson at 9, B Jones later in the first or use a later pick on OT.

What prevents a player from signing a contract with a huge signing bonus and then retiring the following year?
If a player unexpectedly retires in his prime, while playing under a long term contract in which the team gave the player a signing bonus, the CBA allows the team to attempt to recoup some of that Signing Bonus. This has become known as the “Barry Sanders Rule”.
If the team – usually after an arbitration hearing – is entitled to receive the return of a portion of the player’s Bonus, that amount is credited to the following year’s Salary Cap.
To be clear, though, not every retirement causes the return of bonus money. In fact, teams often sign veteran players to contracts with a number of years that they know will not be fully reached. In such cases, the teams never seek the return of bonus money – and likely wouldn’t win in arbitration, anyway. The return of bonus money is only likely to occur when the player essentially retires unexpectedly and without legitimate reason (i.e. injury).
NFL Salary Cap FAQs - Russell Street Report
Share on facebook Share on twitter Everything You Could Ever Want To Know About The NFL Salary Cap (and MORE!) By Brian McFarland @ravenssalarycap How is the Salary Cap calculated? The Salary Cap is based on a complicated calculation that measures the league’s revenue (or certain revenues) and...

The CBA has a number of rules in regards to the forfeiture of money in a contract, which are all outlined in Article 4, Section 9. The gist of it is that the NFL team holds the right to force a player to forfeit bonus money if the player holds out, is suspended under the NFL drug policies, or retires. The forfeiture amounts vary but in general they are a proportionate amount to the number of weeks the player misses. The amount is based on signing bonus prorations attributed to the year or a prorated amount tied to roster, reporting or option bonuses. The fundamental difference between the two categories is that the signing bonus is able to be forfeited in any season, regardless of when it was earned, in which the amount is more than $0 while the second group can only be forfeited if the violation occurs in the year that they are paid.
The 40 mil was paid in 2022 you dolt.

The only "roster bonus" Luck had to pay back was for the year he retired. But you already know this, your just being obtuse.
