  • Glad this didn't take long, Haden can now start to prove he was worth the 7th pick...

    Still wish we could have drafted Eric Berry. Anyway he wont be ready to dominate for at least 3 years and by then Wright will have bolted for more money somewhere else, so he will be the main guy. I just hope Wright see's the potential with this kid and might take a little less down the road to be on a dominant secondary.

  • Does anyone know what Darrelle Revis is asking for his contract? Like i stated before i think the kid has a ton of potential as an althete but i wasnt sold on drafting a corner so high i was all for eric berry and i do think earl thomas is gonna be a great saftey 2..Also i think we may have been able to grab him along the lines of say #14 or so but i dont know if anyone was willing to trade places or for what costs

    Revis is wanting to be paid more than Asomough(sp?), like 16 mill a year..

  • heres a link on nfl network where they talk about it some

  • This is great news Haden is a player. This draft class will be he turning point for this team.

    ❤

  • Haden's contract is 12 million higher than DHB's was last year in the same spot. DHB was enormously overpaid for his position. Haden is making $10 million more than Rolando McClain, drafted one spot later.

    These contracts are a team killer if the player doesn't pan out.

  • If you offered Joe Haden in a trade tomorrow with his 26 million guaranteed contract I seriously doubt there would be any interest from other teams.

  • Rookie contracts anymore are absolutely absurd and when everything shakes out in the negotiations in the future a rookie cap needs to be put in place. If I were a Cleveland fan I would HATE that contract. 26 Million dollars guaranteed? Christ. But yea you have to like getting your 1 in, in time for camp.

    Haden and his agent would have immediately walked out if that was Holmgren's first contract offer to Haden.

    I suspect it is the same for every single #1 draft pick for every team, not just Cleveland. The Steeler fans should probably hate the contract Pouncey will get when he signs, if he hasn't already.

    As noted, this is a major issue in the Collective Bargaining negotiations. The union will almost certainly agree to a rookie wage scale as long as more money than the rookies are getting are shifted over to veterans and retirees. Both sides agree on the concept, the question is how to implement it.
