GoBengals

great point, i agree. tho i dont see anything Mcpherson did wrong, and there are a few cnadid conversations with the ST coach and money mac talking about it not being on him. so i agree with adding the holder being new in the mix for sure. yeah no dispute there, im just a stickler for placing blame where it belongs, and i dont think i have seen anything that makes that person money mac.

thats not what any of this is about. if thats how this was supposed to go, they line up nameless stat sheets and just put guys in in order of stat sheets. has nothing to do with what this is, IMO.

thats the first time i have ever clicked anything that has anything to do with spotify ever.

no the bengals are cheap. obv.

long snapper was the issue. not the kicker... no idea why this isnt talked about more.. also why they brought in another long snapper.. the top one coming from college. i assume he wins the job... they only gave old one a 1 year small deal... they typically do 2 with ST guys. both of these things are true

i cannot dig into what the purpose of this question is. whats the point youre digging at? are you saying i think they should have avoided this agent? this is an agent with no experience and only clients with entry level deals, there IS NO history so there was no reason to know theyd take their first 1st round pick client to make up shit for attention and dig in... this is the most confusing comment in this thread for me.. half the nfl passed on the 17th pick who was projected to go 17th? so like.. thats not passing on a player... thats NOT passing on players ranked above him... he was drafted where he was slotted to go.... he wasnt a top 5 pick that teams passed on. yeah the whole thing was so confusing i had to go see what was behind the curtain... and it wasnt much... yes. if his agent was any other single agent on EARTH he would have signed a while ago. no other agent is this naive, inexrlpeinced and desperate to make a headline for themselves to gain clients. 100% Mulugheta would be waay way way better. so much better.. well his dad seems like a dumbass, especially if he and his son were duped by a guy whose only acolade is a forbes 30 under 30 article and NIL players.. language changes every offseason in every contract, dont be ridiculous, i guess they should be using the 2004 contract template? gambling changes, workouts change NFLPA court cases change are won and lost, id imagine nfl contract language changes monthly. silliness i assume you arent joking... the deals are 100% slotted, there is absolutely ZERO MONEY in dispute here, he cCANNOT get a single cent more, the funds are 100% slotted. not a penny is in dispute. this dispute is: The bengals added lanugage (that most other teams already had) that allows loss of money if he violates policy. the Agents response "well they need to give something in return if he signs that" the kicker? WHAT THE FUCK CAN THEY GIVE IN RETURN?!?!??! no one has an answer to that. it cant be money. they aren't in dispute when guarantees get paid.. nothing.. he is just sitting and posturing trying to make headlines. you mean he signed the day after the bracket pick in front of him signed? yeah.. and 7 players signed that SAME EXACT WEEK? yeah thats what happened. and was in camp just fine. the pining here is getting silly. what is it you think the bengals are doing wrong in this situation exactly. they added language that protects against poor behavior. you think they should allow poor behavior with fewer consequences? you think they should just cave this time so he signs? then no one will ever sign that language.... ever... and its language other teams are already using... what the fuck angle could you possibly be taking here? naive isnt a character flaw. just still ignoring the reality of nfl scouting data business and a staff here i see. must be nice. yea he got duped by a clown agent with no experience looking for cash grabs. thts his only flaw so far.. once again? when was the first time? i like how everyone sits here and acts like 31 nfl teams just have smooth flawless contract deals and the bengals are sticks in the mud... yall dont have TV's and internet or what? Mims signed the day after the player in front of him signed and the details were bracketed in place... had nothing to do with anything else. there are no extra demands this is just foolish logic. "we haven't won a bunch of superbowl so we should get taken advantage of from agents and players making success with roster even more difficult." - this is what you said. and thats nonsensical bafoonery. ding ding ding the media doesnt get leaked info from the bengals, they get it from agents, theyll die on the sword of the bengals being wrong, even if they dont make sense doing so.. because of bunch of people like in this thread will just believe it. how many time is "the bengals are cheap" come up in this as the reason.. the money is set in stone period.. its was never negotiated.. man who in his camp got bamboozled by these losers.... its pathetic... how does every first round pick not choose one of the 50 entrenched experienced nfl agents that have worked for decades... you picked Opie from the NYC club scene? jesus christ. he had to have paid off his dad or something... no one makes this choice... can you grab some crayons and paper and draw a map of how this even makes sense as a sentence? teams have adopted this protective language across the majority of the league.. the bengal follow suit. and the bengls are "pissed" and "taking it out on" someone.. dude what the FUCK are you even talking about. the bengls have a completed contract with no issues that would trigger such language from Chase and Tee, which would give you some solace in allowing it to not be in there. get real. the agent is the one halting the deal. explain what the bengals are in the wrong for here. literally just one single they they are doing wrong. just 1... 1 REAL thing they are doing wrong.. not a made up one, not some trigger language. a real actually issue they are presenting. installing language most teams use in deals? yikes.. how dare they.. I think Mims got the Gambling language i think on top of that there is other new language other teams put in for this year, that other teams ahve done for previous years... but first year for bengals. Stewerts agent is saying mims didnt sign the same language, which is true... but language changes... the agents are trying to plant their flag on their only ever first round client. from my stance they have had one client who isnt a problem and has been successful, and thats a guy one year into his deal in Buffalo as a Guard. you are correct its sports gambling.. it is ALL sports gambling though... so they cant bet on basketball either.. nba employee friend of mine isnt allowed to bet on football or baseball, etc..

good series enjoyed it... we all gonna pretend everyone wasnt saying he was cussing out taylor saying he sucks? just gonna gloss over all that? wheres that thread?

Shortly after the contract dispute opened up i looked up the agency, LAA, Loyalty Above All, aside from being a stupid fucking name, it appears to be full of a circle of douchebags with little to no experience, with profiles using overloaded language like "help clients JK Dobbins and _____ create a brand and "online shopping malls for autographs" online shopping malls...... so a shopify store for $29.99? he said online shopping malls. anyway.. They have made the list of footbal lclients harder to get to on the site, making none of the links to categories bring up the lists (unless its my browser at work) I could get to them earlier, but google had my back. Dalvin Cook - Not in the NFL James Cook - On Rookie deal, publicly demanding $15mil per year, team told him we arent negotiation extensions right now. Franchise tag is only $13.2 JK Dobbins - Injury riddled career, 3rd team in 3 years, on a prove it 2mil deal. after having 7 mil previous year and doing well... odd? Darrelle Revis - hasnt been in the league for 6 years. possibly a merchandising only deal with with fanatics? Derion kendrick - dunno who this is - a 6th round pick on a 1 year only deal. Sam Kamara - UDFA for bears and now browns, did have 15 combined tackles last year.. so theres that. Ramel Keyton - an UDFA who isnt in the league, waived Sept 29th of his rookie year with 1 catch, not in the league Kaeris jackson - UDFA no longer in the league wavied by texans after UDFA signing O'Cyrus Torrence - A real player 2nd round pick, still on bills. on rookie deal. Josh Gordon - lol yes that one.. hasnt played in many years last deal with 100k with titans. Jack Conley - UDFA for Pats, rookie, at least still in the league, $840k deal Kris Mitchell - Undrafted, never been on a team. Dayton Wade - Undrafted WR, Ravens, likely cut in camp. Kaden Prather - 7th round WR for bills, rookie Jacolby George - Undreafted WR for Panthers likely cut in camp Frank Gore = lolololol, hasnt played in 5 years, looks like an autographs deal Jon Garvin - 7th rounder linebacker rookie, teams or cut player Malik Rutherford - undreafted, never in the nfl or NIL only dealings Jamorie Flagg - never in league NIL dealings it seems Keyone Jenkins - NIL only dealings still in college Rara Thomas - NIL dealings went from Miss St to george to Troy.. constant downgrade of schools Mandrell Desir - Freshman in college NIL dealings Darryll Desir - NIL Only dealings Malachi Toney - NIL college freshman Lawayne McCoy - NIL only college sophmore Dan Villari - NIL only QB turned TE for syracuse Bear Alexander - NIL only, jr at oregon 3rd school in 3 years. some cool names.. that dont play anymore. basically has 6 clients who are real nfl players mostly. counting two 7th rounders who arent likely to be on rosters in a few months. So James Cook, JK Dobbins, and Shamar Stewert. an injury flyer player, Shamar and Cook with one good season and demandin to be the 3rd highest paid RB in the league. this is whats guiding Shamar stewert. lol Born and raised in Suffern, NY, Zac started his first business at 18; a successful nightlife and event planning company that handled everything from birthday parties to Fortune 500 corporate events. He used this money to pay for school at the University of Michigan- Ann Arbor where he received his undergraduate degree in Sport Management as well as at the Zicklin School of Business – Baruch College where he received his Master’s in Marketing. Zac has been a certified NFLPA contract advisor since 2016, negotiating over $100 Million in contracts before his 30th birthday. He formed LAA on the principle of what has driven his success to date; LOYALTY to those that support and believe in him. threw parties, "negotiated" 100 mil in contracts, which is all rookie deals and the 70 mil deal for which he saw 26million of before being cut 2 seasons later. this guy has virtually no experience, no clients, and is giving terrible advice to get his clients name in headlines.. but you know.. the bengals are cheap or whatever (in a set dollar deal). using his client to get media attention for himself, calling all podcasters and yelling at them for saying he is making stupid moves. but mike brown or whatever....

Clipse album dropped today, - Let God Sort Em Out. its very good.

yep, they are small, cheap and easy to hold onto and hold out, so i get it, it checks every box except being a productive item to get signed..

nothing worse to get signed honestly.. especially the mini. the stripes are THICK ass stickers.. so EVERY paint pen, marker, everything catches it and fucked up the auto. even on the big ones people often cut a stripe or sign small as hell in between.. terrible.. TERRIBLE.

yeah methodman doesnt wanna do it unless he gets a huge cut, he is the draw, they do definitely take turns on stage, raekwon isnt looking great, ghostface also not in super good health. methodman looks 30 and jacked, inspectah deck also in great health.
