So players don’t refuse to sit their 5th year options out? Teams also get a refund for players that don’t perform? What part of that isn’t true exactly?This simply isn't true.
The players always getting the benefit. NFL contracts greatly benefit the owners currently. That may change with more players pushing for fully guaranteed contracts but as of right now owners have it goodSo players don’t refuse to sit their 5th year options out?

You have to be kidding me. Players get payed the full amount even when they are injured and don’t play, and as time passes more and more of them are deciding not to “risk further injury” and just sit out. They are getting paid to do nothing so why not? The Air McNairs that would give the hometown discount and play through hell and high water because they actually loved the fans and the team are long gone. Now they all only care about doing as little as possible to get paid as much as possible which make me question what the hell I’m actually watching. The league is a shell of what it was 15 years ago. Back then, everything wasn’t “just a business.”The players always getting the benefit. NFL contracts greatly benefit the owners currently.

Why should they give a hometown discount tho? Or put their wellness and future earnings on the line? They're the very best at the world at what they do. Which happens to be, very dangerous, very entertaining, and provide a ton of revenue. If the owners aren't willing to pay them to be the top 1% of one of the biggest revenue streams in the country then fuck em. Someone else will pay.You have to be kidding me.

Did McNair have CTE? I don’t think he lived long enough to know, and that was still really early in the investigations of CTE.And what did McNair get in return? Locked out of the building and CTE. Wonderful.
Also, the word your looking for is "paid"
Do they return part of the money when they don’t play to potential? It works both ways. They get paid and lay down. It happens more often than not.Why should they give a hometown discount tho?

Why would Lamar Jackson play on the franchise tag this year for example? He's already played at a discounted rate for 4 years given his production. What if he gets shaziered game one?
The only way I'd trade Simmons for the number 1 pick is if it meant we wouldn't have to give up our first/second in 2024.
Getting Stroud this year then trading the farm for Marvin Harrison Jr in 2024 sounds tight.
It would be worth it if you get a true franchise QB, but I’m just not sure any of these QB’s are worth giving up all of that. I think it would be smarter to roll with Tannehill another year.Buckner was traded straight up for the 13th pick in the draft. Ran was with the 49ers when that trade went down.
Trade Simmons, 2nd this yr, 1st in 2024 and 2025.
Get QB and LT in this draft...
I can see both sides of thought here but I have to agree with you on this. Roll with Tanne, let his contract expire and start really working with all of that cap space we have in 2024. There will be good QB's in next years draft.It would be worth it if you get a true franchise QB, but I’m just not sure any of these QB’s are worth giving up all of that. I think it would be smarter to roll with Tannehill another year.

I doubt very seriously that Henry or Tannehill will be a Titan this season. Tannehill more likely than Henry.You can still roll with Tanny and Henry this yr....let QB sit a yr while the OL gels and improves and then use the cap space next yr to get a starter to take the place of the 1st that you have given up
