I bet DJ is pissed,

 

why would dj be pissed?

 

No idea, but who cares?? LOL I am SOOO pumped to have Minkah resigned!!

 

Make it rain boys.

 

Possibly the 18 mill he could have gotten per year , went to someone else

 

I'd assume because he feels he has outplayed his rookie deal and deserved more money, add to that a couple of months worth of fluffing with people filling his head with the "top receiver on the team" bs. Basically the narrative being this player got paid so that player will be pissed he wasn't a higher priority.

Tough contract to 'live up to' but he has been a good player worthy of the 1st given up to get him.
Pittsburgh should settle up with remaining players relatively fast now that a new GM is in place and had time to settle in.
I think they still might pick up a player come Free Agency part II.

Glad the brother got the bag.

 

You guys are related?

 

I like him. But 18 is hard for me to swallow. Giving TJ a massive amount, i could live with. Due to TJ performance.

 

I'm happy for him but it seems too big of a gamble for me with that amount of money. I seen him take a bunch of bad angles and miss some tackle last season. Hopefully he improves in that technique and earns that huge payday.

On a side note, the price for Jesse Bates for the Bengals just went up. They franchised tagged him but currently he is holding out.

 

You wouldn't understand.

 

They got the FS already. And he's a ball hawk.

 

I'm sure Minkah's gonna have many relatives coming forth that he's never known.

 

How many brothers does he have?

 

Care to explain it?

 

It seems everyone always wants more than the previous guy lol

 

Guess my thread wasn't attractive enough ..Glemm had to post the same thing...But he screams at everyone else " There's already a thread on this "

 

His body had to take a beating last season from all the tackles.
A little healing money.

 

You are slipping bro.

I might be his long lost brother Mooch Fitzpatrick.
