maximus said:Eli said he wouldnt sign with SD. Why would you want a player who doesnt want to play for you on your team?
The point is he doesn't have a choice. If he won't sign for the team that drafts him, he has to enter the next years draft instead. By that time he would be lucky to go on the first day, which is why you never see players doing so.
Having said he didn't want to play for San Diego already before the draft, they did the smart thing and set up a very advantageous deal.
