well, if Peppers misses out on more than a few days of training camp....
I blame Woody. It's his fault.

and so begins the official holdout of a marginal player. Good way to represent yourself in Buckeye Nation. Strike one, failed pee test, strike two refused to sign participation agreement, strike three holdout. Quick run out and get a gerbil jersey.

I get that & that's fine- and Mom is going to be living the high life courtesy of her son. Got an extended family with their hands out based on the Draft Day Party I saw too.
Boo-hoo. Just being realistic. $10 million and change on your rookie contract, and your f**king agent wants to quibble? That sets him AND Mom up for life, So if you flop, you can't get that second Lamborghini you were counting on with the 4th year money? That's not us Joe six-pack reality kid.
He had a draft party therefore his extended family is definitely asking for handouts?
He's thinking about his second Lamborghini?
You seem to have your mind made up

You ever hear the saying, "where there's a will, there are relatives"? Think it's pretty safe to say, he's going to get hit up for money. I know of a case where this guy's kid hit the lottery, & had to move out of town, because everyone who barely knew him needed some cash.
Regarding the Lamborghini, he's making my mind up for me. We've determined his agents are going for the last dime.

I know a lot of you made up your mind before he was drafted. Whether you'll admit it or not.

Lets say that you know that you graduate college and know that the average career length is 3 years average. wouldn't you want the most money you can get? Just being realistic
I'm hoping our 1st round draft pick isn't thinking, "man I better get paid since my career might be just 3 years".

No need to get defensive. Some may have Woody- but not me. Judgement reserved. I may be an Ohio State Homer, but I'd be just as hard on Jabril for this contract BS if he had played in Columbus, not Ann Arbor.
As Terry Pluto said- he's not exactly endearing himself to fans with the way he's acting. Waited a day to sign the participation agreement. Agency trying to squeeze the last nickels out of the Browns (and other teams their clients were drafted by). You should realize after their dealings with Pryor- the Browns FO isn't going to budge. Peppers could have ended this crap weeks ago- I hope he's smart enough to know, you'll eventually get paid top dollar when you play like an All-Pro. The big money comes in your second contract- afraid you're not good enough to warrant that?
Only hurting himself- and the Browns- if Williams intends to use him as a hybrid every day he sits out. Could be a wasted season. That's what concerns me- not what freaking college he went to.

agree 100%. Same here, if he went to school in Columbus and pulled all the same shit, My posts would say the same with the exception there is no shit hole in central Ohio.

Part of the problem about playing for the Browns is that you don't get recognized for your good play because the team sucks so bad and is so far from the national media limelight.
I understand the $$ is important. But you're a first round pick, it's gonna be pretty big money. And by holding out you're not going to endear yourself to the coaches. I'm sure Greg Williams will be very understanding if you don't report to work for several days. He's good like that.
The last first round pick DB to do this to us was Justin Gilbert. That didn't work out too well.

If he plays like a first round pick should play it won't matter to me where he went to school. My opinion of Bosa holding out was the same as it is with Peppers. I would have been just a vocal if Bosa was a Brown.
-
Right....and a lot of us were down on Bosa for holding out.....OSU player or not.....sure as hell aint gonna defend a prick just because he played at a certain college.....
The thing about rookie holdouts now is that, to me, it's even more annoying.....look, the pay scale is pre-set....he's getting the full amount, whether he signs today or waits.....So, the hold out is due to petty bs(which is what bugs me)....it is offset language and/or guarantees, both of which protect players who dont live up to their billing......just sign and take what you earn....and if you suck, just hit the road w/o taxing your team for it....

It's all about $$ guaranteed up front. Here we go again with agents filling players heads with dollars & promises. imo CAA filled the Peppers camp heads that he would go in top 20 picks.(he fell on the bubble after piss at combine) Which 4yrs. can be fully guaranteed b4 pick 21ish..He goes at 25 & all the sudden Sashi Brown is to spread his Cheeks..Sashi's no dummy.. they are & scrambling for the 4th yr. guarantee'd by CAA.(it's discount double check time on his agents)
-
Here's the problem for the Browns. They get the #1 overall and a fully guaranteed contract goes out to him.
So now every Brown's 1st rounder thinks they also deserve their lower amount fully guaranteed as well.
Tough shit. You are not the #1 overall and closer to the top of the 2nd than you are the top of the 1st. Sign it.
