He should have performed better in college and got drafted higher. Honor your contract man.

While I don't disagree with you that I wish players would honor the contracts they sign, I have moved a bit away from that position.    Unless the contract is guaranteed (and few if any are FULLY guaranteed in the NFL) the team can cut the player at any time and avoid paying the full contract amount that they agreed to pay.   As long as the team has that option, the player should also have the right to walk away.
