Mankins 'So Mad He Can't See Straight'
 |
According to Curran Frank Bauer, Mankins' agent, told him the two sides aren’t even close, and that Mankins isn’t happy at all.
"[Mankins] is so mad he can't see straight," Bauer told Curran.
Mankins was due to become an unrestricted free agent this offseason, but due to the lack of a Collective Bargaining Agreement it caused him to revert to a restricted free agent. He’s due to make $3.268 this season in New England, but knows it’s well below his market value.
The 28-year old originally signed a rookie contract which was for five years and $6.4 million, with $4 million guaranteed. He was assigned the first and third-round tender - the richest possible option for a player - back on March 4th of this year.
