If they can't get a deal done it is all about AD agent wanting to not just set a record but destroy a record of earnings. These are the same guy that held Bosa out over a rookie deal.
They can get a deal done even if at this point the Rams are offering too little given the real parameters. They just need to meet at 23/24 M which a lot of people are saying is what will get it done.
Those guys had a point on Bosa. San Diego has a lot to do with the Bosa holdout. It was not a dispute over money. Under the new CBA players's contract numbers are pretty much slotted and there is very little wiggle room on either side. It's covered by the rookie cap. The dispute was over when he would receive his signing bonus. Every top draft pick before Bosa had received their signing bonus by the end of the year they were drafted. SD wanted an exception with Bosa and wanted him to get the bonus by the spring of 2017, almost a year after he was drafted. The dispute was over Bosa being an exception to precedent on that and getting the bonus later. SD also wanted an opt-out clause that would have allowed them to cut him after his third season and be compensated if another team signed him. Bosa's argument was he would take one or the other--late signing bonus but no team-favoring opt-out clause, or an opt-out clause for the team but he gets his bonus in his first year like every other high-picked rooki
