Sorry Bosa if you get cut and another team signs you to a contract you don't get to get to get paid by both teams. that's not how it works
He's a dnozzle
Nobody asks for/gets this
See you in Canada Joey
on whether or not there is offset language in the contract?
It is one of the few remaining things they CAN negotiate. And that is exactly how it works.
Guaranteed means guaranteed. If a team commits to paying the contract, at that point, it doesn't really matter if they cut him and another team pays him, too, it is completely irrelevant. Anyway, Bosa is willing to concede this point (on the offset language), but than doesn't want to make a signing bonus payout timing/structure concession ALSO that no other player in his position has been asked to on BOTH counts.
We are definitely operating from a different set of assumptions, and unsurprisingly, drawing different conclusions based on that. And imo, it doesn't help matters when they throw out complete non-sequiturs specifically designed to confuse the issue. Going public that they have offered him more than any other Charger first rounder since 2011 when the previous high was #11 overall and Bosa is #3 is a bush league, sleazeball negotiating tactic, which is why MY vitriol is directed at the team.
