Think about it.
Dude doesn't gain a year towards FA because Rams already put 5th year option on him, so he loses only money by not showing up this year...at least that is my understanding??? He probably counting on fines being waved as part of new deal also.
Speaking of money, I'm sure his agent has already told him that he will take care of the $2mil he will miss out on if he goes to the wall on this thing... $2mil is nothing to a guy about to make $120mil regardless.
Donald knows he won't get much out of the Rams this year anyway since they are already up against the cap.... he has nothing to lose.
Dude is reportedly still back home in Pittsburgh....tells me he thinks this negotiation is going nowhere...and is not eager at all about getting back on the field anytime soon.
I think he has overplayed his hand here and now is in a no win situation by signing a deal in 2017.
It's too bad he got tangled up with this agent...this is probably already a done deal if he was with any other agent.
Oh well.... just gonna have to start winning games 28-24 instead of trying to squeak out 9-6 victories.
Go Rams!!!
