    The Jayden Daniels Tracker

    Yep, something else about the above article about JD reminds me of something I read about Brady as well. That he relentlessly, obsessively, practiced the basics every single offseason. Most people would think "Well, it's Tom Brady and his footwork and mechanics are pretty much perfect, so he...

    The Jayden Daniels Tracker

    Two things can be true at the same time: 1) The VR system that JD uses is groundbreaking and very helpful 2) JD is a naturally fast processor and hard worker From everything I've read over the past year, both of those things seem to be true. The VR system is pretty revolutionary and can give...

    The Jayden Daniels Tracker

    Couple of points on that QB Tier list: 1) Matthew Stafford at 5 is baffling. The dude is old and has been very mediocre over the last few seasons. Last year he was 12th in QBR and 13th in EPA. Daniels was 4th in both of those. Don't get me wrong, I don't have any dislike for Stafford and he's...

    Yeah, I'd be surprised if any team would be willing to give a 30 year old WR even $30m/year, let alone ~$34m/year. At between $25m-$28m he'd be the highest paid 30+ WR in the NFL outside of Hill, who's making ~$30m. But Hill also signed that contract right after a monster 1st team All-Pro 2023...

    $28m/year would be an absolute haul for a 30 year old receiver. Especially one who has always been very good but never truly in the top 5 elite category. It would be wild if he refused to take that and ended up completely screwing himself. Which means he'd either 1) Make ~$19.5m this season and...

    I think the concern is that Terry would try to sit out the first half of the year with a fake injury and then suddenly feel much better and be able to play once he gets to the point where he has to start playing in order to accrue an official season, meaning he can be a potential UFA after this...

    I don't think Terry can play that card - where he sits out and only comes back for just enough games to accrue a season. Because if Washington wants to, they can say "you either play the full season or we put you on the Reserve/Did Not Report list and refuse to remove you from that list all...

    There's exactly 1 receiver who's 30 or over and who makes over $25m/year, and that's Tyreek Hill (who was literally ranked the #1 player in the NFL after the 2023 season). The next closest is Calvin Ridley who's 30 and makes ~$23m. I wouldn't be at all surprised if AP is sitting in that...

    If Terry is this easily misled, then I've vastly overestimated him. That's not to say there's no blame with his numbskull agent, but Terry has a brain, he can use it, and he can make his own decisions. If he fell for some pie-in-the sky song and dance about how he's going to be able to get paid...

    Whoa, it was Terry McLaurin who engineered several last minute game winning drives as a rookie while being cool as a cucumber and utterly unfazed, regardless of the stakes of the game? I guess you learn something new every day. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ (as with SIP, this is not a response to you...

    I agree that it's not about "right" or "wrong", but it is about reality. Which Terry seems intent on refusing to face. The reality is: - The FO isn't going to pay him ~$34+m/year (assuming reports that he wants more than Meltcalf are true). It simply isn't going to happen. - The FO isn't going...

    Does the phase of the moon count as leverage? You're just searching desperately for random things to say are "leverage" when they aren't. Leverage means the person can do something and it will hurt the other side of the negotiations more than it would hurt the person doing it (or even benefit...

    Just because one team overpays a guy in a major way doesn't automatically mean that other teams must also overpay a guy at the same position if they don't believe he's worth that. DK is what Terry's side wants to use as a comp. Cool story for them. Doesn't mean anything in terms of how everyone...

    Terry doesn't have leverage. The only thing he could do that would hurt the team at all is sit out and refuse to play this season. But doing that would hurt him even more than it hurts the team. If he sits out then he risks getting paid nothing this season in addition to not accruing a year of...

    The team's, and likely pretty much the entire league's. If he were a FA he might be able to get some stupid panicking team to pay a 30 year old receiver ~$34m/year, but I think it's very unlikely. If you went around the league and asked every FO what they would pay Terry, I'm betting you likely...

    "he should stand 10 toes down and get every dollar he’s worth" - The problem is that he's not worth what he's apparently asking for, but he seems incapable of or unwilling to accept that.

    Stroud came in at #20 after his stellar rookie season, and JD arguably had a better one, including leading his team to the NFCCG. I wouldn't be surprised to see JD in the top 15.

    Terry isn't dumb and he's not the kind of guy who will just do whatever an agent tells him to if he doesn't want to do so. I doubt his agent is doing him any favors (probably feeding his delusions and agreeing with it), but I also doubt that it's primarily on the agent.

    I guess I just find it unlikely that they'd let him walk without getting anything, unless he mails it in this season and its clear that he's not going to play hard on the franchise tag (or will suddenly have lots of phantom injuries). If they believe he'll still play hard on the field, then...
