That is what he is going to get.
But he isn't going to have to.
Thats a completely different situaiton than Landrys
Not combative at all, I simply disagree. And no we don't agree in our assessment of Landry, THAT is the point. He will get a top 10 safety contract IMO and you are saying he will get a fraction of it because it will be downgraded for injury.
He either gets top 10 safety money or none because he is not healthy.
But it is what you described and have again.
Once again, no matter how many times you repeat yourself I disagree that he will be penalized in his contract for injury.
I read everything you said. I disagree with its premise.
What I
thought we agreed on: Landry is a probowl safety, and should/would be treated as a premier, tier 1 free agent..
What I
think you are saying we disagree on:
He has not been a tier 1, first day of FA, Big money signing (like most young probowl talent) because there are concerns over his health...... Although I think we DO agree on that
What we clearly don't agree on:
He MIGHT be best serve with a short term, incentive laden deal, to erase any doubts teams have and cash in next year.
I didn't mean to insist that he absolutely will not get a long term, high dollar deal... just that IF he doesn't (as many have pontificated) I think he would be better off playing this year to showcase himself for the Dan Snyder, Al Davis type of contract (he obviously could get, if no injury concerns were present) next year.... especially since the cap is set to skyrocket the year after.
I agree that it is absurd to treat Landry as a huge injury risk, and Mario Williams as the #1 defensive player in the league, when they have almost identical games missed in the past 2 years. What the real difference between their situations is the position they play. Williams' position makes him the big prize.
I honestly thought we were thinking the same thing of Landry's actual worth, and how his situation has skewed it. Which is why it looks as though you were looking for a reason to be combative (let's be honest... you do have a history of it
)
I just didn't appreciate that you jumped ugly on me, under the assumption that I insisted he will be forced to take a below market deal.
That was never my assertion, even if that is what could be derived from my wording. This is why I apologized for any confusion, and tried to explain myself better.
Most intelligent people understand that it is often very difficult to convey true intent through text (without the benefit of seeing body language, facial expression or tone of voice... all vital keys to human communication)
I guess this is why there is so much conflict about comments through social media nowadays.
That being said, There are 2 things I know for certain about you (and to be fair, a few other posters here) at this point...
1. You are a very intelligent person
2. You are a very argumentative person
I have no idea why you have such a hair across your bumm, but I honestly enjoy reading some of your posts... That is why I don't simply put you on ignore.
The big difference between us is that when you post an opinion that I don't agree with, I don't rip you a new arse over it... I simply move on to the next post.
If this is such a problem for you, and you feel that my occasional postings are such an annoyance to you, please, by all means... put
ME on ignore.
If you choose not to, it's either because you, A. enjoy reading some of my opinions (you're very welcome
)... or B. you just enjoy arguing and being a jerk.
