Adam2552 Releases MattJames Contract Negotiations

You're missing the point though. If there was no player option for years 2 and 3 then I have no doubt that Adam would've accepted. But as the suggested contract stands, he could've taken the 6m and jumped ship after 1 season. Seeing as he stated later that he didnt want to play in Philly in the first place, that seems like what he would've done.

Regarding my contract, the 4m "bonus" was a team expense. The only reason its next to my name in the contract page is for book keeping.

((I didn't miss the point. I addressed that with the "either or" approach. I agree that a player option for someone who's admitted to not wanting to be there would require a MUCH lower initial investment.

And I know your char didn't receive that money, but in terms of team expense, Philly DID spend that money to fill a position of need on defense, which is relevant given James' remarks on the scarcity of O line.))
