Slegr Posted September 2, 2021 Share Posted September 2, 2021 Less than three weeks away from training camp. Three weeks away exactly until first preseason game. I’m starting to think neither guy is signed by then. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Fig Posted September 2, 2021 Share Posted September 2, 2021 Jim has, IMO, done everything he can to make the situation here to win as good as he can for the next couple years. He's put it on the line. If these two guys aren't in, then it's best we find out sooner rather than later. But I think they'll both come around.

bree2 Posted September 2, 2021 Share Posted September 2, 2021 i know peeps are going to jump all over me, but i am getting pretty tired of waiting for Petey and Quinn to sign here. it is about time for them to man up and just sign or go somewhere else. i know that cdc are patient but other sites have lost patience as each day passes! why do they have to wait til the bitter end to sign or not sign, it doesn't make them more popular, in fact i would say the opposite 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even Bo waited until camp. I think we know too much now about this kind of stuff, its never good to see how the sausage is made. 1 4 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just seems like a complex negotiation in general with lots to consider. I'm not worried yet, think It'll get done soon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we know too much now about this kind of stuff, its never good to see how the sausage is made. exactly this. with no real negotiating position other than holding out which looks bad on the player, its tough for the agent or the players to pressure for more money. with Pettersons comments on wanting to play for a winning team this is where he will have to put up or shut up. I am not saying they shouldnt get paid well, just fit it into the cap space so they can be very competitive. if theres 16 million left then work out what that is between the two and lets get on with this. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The adage is "everyone is tradeable for the right price". If someone wants to give up a ton of high valued assets for a player, no matter who they are you have to look at it and consider making the move. The inverse is true with offersheets. If someone came along and offered Pettersson 8 years at 15 mil per, you have to at the very least consider it. Obviously thats an absurd overvaluation and wouldn't happen, but the principle behind the idea is there. My walk away number for Pettersson is 12.85 million per season, any term. Anything less and I likely match 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Petety will be on a 3 year bridge and Hughes longer term at 5-6 years. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s better than whatever those 4 picks will end up being. Once you get close to 13 million though, it really hamstrings your cap situation and unless he turns into a generational level player, it is a guaranteed overpayment based on my model. i reaaalllyyy really doubt anyone submits an OS for that much though 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hughes 6 years at 7M per. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
