MJD doesn’t deserve to have his contract renegotiated.. he still has two years left on his deal. Rice and Forte got big deals and MJD is still going to make MORE then those two players in the last two years of his contract than they will in the first two years of their contracts. Pay the man? He’s being paid, very well.. he needs to get his butt to camp and quit the act.

Bowe will never get Fitzgerald money. He is way past that. If he stays in KC, he will get somewhere in the area of 10 mil and 4years. If he continues his holdout and comes in just before the season, the fans will boo him out of Arrowhead. Just wait ’till his first drop. Don’t know if it’s him or his agent, but if Bowe doesn’t get in, like now, this could end up badly for him and the Chiefs.

3 diva wide recievers (surprise!) and one guy trying to secure his future because the way its going in Jacksonville, he might not have a very bright one or a long one. I will support MJD, pay that dude!

And Wallace is learning the Steelers don’t do diva. He refused 9 mill a year (allegedly) so screw him. Let him sit out, the steelers will find a way without him just like they always have. Wallace should be ashamed of himself.

Bowe wants Fitzgerald money according to rumors. Some team will give him that and be very disappointed. The chiefs are playing this smart in my opinioN

Anyone know if they don’t report until week 10, to sign the tender , do they still get credit for full salary amount , per the franchise tag? Or is it pro-rated? ( as in per game)?

$30,000 a day in fines? WOW, I cannot even fathom that.

I’m glad the Vikes avoided the Blackmon headache. Dude, you haven’t taken one snap in the NFL, your in the substance abuse program already, and your acting like a diva already? Get your butt to camp and quit being a d-bag to the Jags franchise and their fans.

Blackmon will be a bust, mark my words. Another Michael Crabtree, version 2.0.

Chiefs are a overrated bunch without an NFL quality QB. Dwayne Bowe knows this so he’s just gonna come in last minute sign his 1 year deal and split after 2012.

MJD has a contract and is sitting at home like a pouting child. And now his backup looks good. Somebody needs to tell him about Wally Pipp.

We chiefs fan should know u don’t give 8 to 9 million a yr to a 28 yr old wr who’s might have 2 to 3 good yrs left. Franchise him this yr let him walk next yr.

And Blackmon has the weakest..Any rookie that holds out very long historically has a bad start to their career and mediocre career after that..not all but percentage wise he’s on the wrong side. This guy is going to be another headache like his buddy in Dallas. And with the QB he has the longer he sits the worse it’s going to be.

The Jaguars gave MJD a great contract which he willingly signed because he wanted a long term deal….now he should deal with it. If you think he deserves more money, send it to him out of your wallet, I am sure he won’t turn it down.

MJD, in my opinion has the strongest cause. The Jaguars are nothing without him. Their whole offense is garbage. They either acknowledge how important he is (and subsequently worth more money) they can start thinking about replacing Blaine Gabbert wirth Matt Barkley right now!”

MJD has 2 years left and I agree with the team. He is a great rb but the rb position doesn’t win too many games. Proof you need, 5-11 and the rushing title.

How important is the RB position…….4 of the 5 leading rushers last year, didn’t make the playoffs….MJD…get to camp, your not that important. You got paid when you signed your contract as the 3rd highest paid RB….finish your contract you signed….I’ll take a trade for Mike Wallace, straight up…

THE GREAT DETROIT LIONS
If these guys won’t to hold out let them this is a none story, every player out their can be replace.

The Lions will trade Cliff Arvil by the 6th game as the DE’s get hurt he will be on the block because next year he will walk, when he turn down 30mil for 3 years I feel like he was gone to the high bid.

Blackmon should hold out indefinitely.

Jones Drew needs an adjustment to his contract. The only proven commodity that the Jaguars currently have.

We Chiefs fans do not know why Bowe couldnt reach a long term agreement in time or why he is holding out from camp. The local media passes some crazy rumors around but none seem to be true. there have been no reports as to the reasons for all this on this site or anywhere in the national media. How come PFT has not reported any reasons? Can PFT let us know whats going on? We are getting appauled by the lack of coverage and info on Bowe
