 Focus your mind for a second and think about what an NFL players goal is for a new contract. 

-Fully guaranteed money 
- Long term security 
- Structure to protect him through injury or ailment
- Money up front 

We didn't get any of those details in the rumoured offer, none. We have no idea how long the deal was structured , no idea how much cash up front, no idea what the offsets , no idea what options were on there.  All of these are critically important. 

"it doesn't matter what the terms are" thank god you aren't any players agent lol

It doesn't matter, 2+19 < 19+19. He is already a Jag for the next 2 seasons with $0 guaranteed money.

The rest of the deal isn't real, it won't be paid. Either math is hard for you or you are focusing solely on the deal in a vacuum.

But that depends on him turning up and playing. Look at Elliott at Dallas, Bell changed players mentality and how long will a team keep a player they aren't playing.

Why does it have to be like that with Yannick. We want to keep him, he wants to stay. Hopefully Marrone or Coughlin can just make a statement and clear up all the holes of facts.
