Melvin Gordon going the route of Lev Bell. Looks like it might go in to the season. |

To be fair that’s slightly misleading. Justin Jackson will be Gordon’s running backup while Ekeler picks up more of a workload than if Gordon was playing. |

Mike Daniels released by GB today. Low class move by the Packers to do it right before camp starts. Some team is gonna get a good DL. |

Attempting a hold out should result in an immediate forfeiture of any currently agreed upon guaranteed funds and a year suspension from the NFL. |

Any holdout that misses games does result in forfeiture of funds. |

A lot has changed since 1987. People want the NFL shield because they are comfortable with it. Their Sundays are defined by it. As long as it is on the TV and they recognize the colors and logos, there won't be a big stink. FOX Sports jingle will always get their nips hard. |

I can't blame any player who does it in the last year of their rookie deal. Those deals are almost completely non-negotiable.I do think there is an issue with someone who signs a huge deal with a huge signing bonus to get the money up front and then is mad that in the last year they aren't getting paid a huge amount per year. |

Why? I imagine most fans aren't upset when a team cuts a player who isn't very good to save millions of dollars. I would be more understanding if we were talking about fully guaranteed contracts. |

i used to be pro team... but now, im pro player... hold out and get your money. if they can easily discard you if you get seriously hurt... then you should be able to use whatever leverage you have to get more money now |
