Just to change the subject a bit:
What is the deal with this Bosa hold out and nastiness?
Considering this sort of thing is rare, that the CBA more or less dictates the salary, bonus, years, etc., and that San Diego hasn't had any trouble signing anyone for several years, one has to wonder what's going on.
Clearly San Diego is not going to change it's practices for one guy, even if that guy is a high draft pick. Any business.....and especially sports....knows that there is no such thing as an exception to the rule when it comes to contracts. An exception becomes the new precedent. Whatever San Diego does with Bosa will translate to draft picks from here on. Is Bosa going to fundamentally change the Chargers? Don't think so.
And it is unimaginable to me that Bosa would seriously consider blowing off 2016 and going back into the 2017 draft. A full year out of football, and then a rather inexplicable contract holdout (that frankly, even the player-friendly media is calling out Bosa), is not going to find Bosa getting drafted anywhere near the top 3 the next time around, and maybe not top 10. The man has perishable skills. And who would want to waste a draft pick on a guy who seems to have some strange ideals about how this contract thing is to go down? If he's trying to prove a point of some kind (like he's going to single handedly change the dynamic about offset language or how SBs are paid), then that is an even bigger red flag because that stuff can carry over to the locker room and practice field.
Read a lot of different thoughts about this, and I'd say the majority are in the camp of "What the.....?"
IMO Bosa better eat some crow and report or he's going to start his career on a decidedly sour note that will not be helpful to him in the longer run.
