I kinda think we should've traded our 1st for Minkah Fitzpatrick and flipped Ramsey for two 1st and called it a day. Maybe also would've better a OL or TE as well.

Contracts allow for players refusing to play, or for owners to cut guys before the term of the contract is up.

The contract says, if you play in the NFL, you have to play for us, and if you play for us, we have to pay you X$. Players can quit, and not get paid, or refuse to play, and not get paid, or owners can cut a player. None of that is breaking a contract. The contracts allow for that. No contract says a player has to play. No contract says a player cannot be cut. The contract says, if you don't play, you don't get paid. The player can just go home and not play without violating the contract.

Because all the contract says is, if you play, you have to play for us, and if you play for us, we have to pay you X dollars.

I very specifically said the years, not the terms. Most contracts are short term deals in terms of security these days.

It's been a common occurrence for players to use leverage to try get better terms, more money, or a new team. This isn't a new thing to hit the NFL like Rico implied

You keep telling yourself this is the same as it's always been.

I would like to not see him on the sideline until his back is not hurt!

Ramsey contract ought to include at least one play as offensive WR action in every half of the game!

All of the above is the same. The difference is there's hourly social media updates and players are more empowered than in the early 2000s and 90s.

Just so we all know where your heads at, can you tell us how many plays that would be?
