May 16, 20205 yr comment_1617100 Maybe it is his agent that is trying to get him on a deal that rivals Tua from the Fins!

Tua at 5 is at 30mil.. The only negotiation would be guaranteed money.. That is probably set in stone too .. Or close...

About the only thing negotiable is when he gets the signing bonus money paid which was what held up Joey Bosa from signing with San Diego.

I think below bust is 'unmitigated disaster'.

He played well and we were up by 10 going into half until the final play. Smith got strip sacked by Jason Taylor and Taylor took the ball into the end zone with no time on the clock. It was the last time I ever saw Smith look even close to an NFL quality QB. 2nd half was horrific.
May 17, 20205 yr comment_1617128 Jesus, Akili should have NEVER have been drafted in the first rd, period. There were SOOOO many red flags that they just flat out ignored. They got what they deserved in the end....fuck em.

That’s bullshit. 5 TDs? Are you sure? Seems way too high...

Not sure if it was the first game but he did beat Cleveland and went ape shit with an exaggerated throat slash celebration giving further proof of what a class individual he was. I think that particular gesture was then outlawed by the NFL, Akillus' only major contribution to professional football.
