Tour2ma Posted September 7, 2019 Report Share Posted September 7, 2019 On another note... How did the Raiders void his guarantees? $1mm was gone due to missing camp time over feet and helmet "issues", but the other $29mm-ish??? Earlier reports said if they suspended him then it was all gone, but doesn't seem like that happened. So...???? Complaining publicly about the added fine for the confrontation with Mayock seems to have been another straw, but I have a feeling it was the posting of his phone convo with Gruden that was the final one. Jon just couldn't trust him after that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the soap opera continues, minus the $30,000,000 guaranteed money. "Is this a great country or what!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

htownbrown Posted September 7, 2019 Report Share Posted September 7, 2019 This will not go over well here, but I could see the Browns signing him to a 1 year contract. The motivation to play the juju, Ben, and the Steelers 2x a year is strong. Not saying we should, but Dorsey is probably talking to Drew as we speak...

I won't argue most of that, but 33million of cap space with a 1 year contract for far less than the Raiders paid is not cap hell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canton Mike Posted September 7, 2019 Report Share Posted September 7, 2019 On 9/6/2019 at 11:58 AM, Tour2ma said: Only drafted him in three leagues... As for the whole situation... I suspended (and fired) employees during my working years. In every case there was a "letter" (to their file) detailing the behavior that was being disciplined. In every case that letter was presented to the employee face-to-face... To drop such a letter in the mail... leave with their time card... or deliver in any other fashion... was unthinkable. In every above case of chronic behavior the disciplinary letter was not the first letter. There was always an earlier letter to file putting the employee on notice and setting setting expectations. I don't know if this was done in this case... but if as I suspect it was not, then AB was blindsided. Yes.... AB's IG post was over-the-top and needs to apologized for, but Mayock set the conflict in motion. When you are disciplining someone, you face them... you give them the chance to respond, make their case, etc. then. You don't let them stew on it. Normally I'd say Mayock's move was "chickenshit", but I don't think there's anything "chicken" about Mike. It was just a wrongheaded, ignorant, inconsiderate move that anyone on the aggressive side of a complete milktoast would react negatively to... let alone someone as volatile as AB. I share the thoughts as stated above. I was surprised when Mayock took the position as Raider's GM. I have always liked Mayock, but he may take the biggest & hardest fall in this fiasco. Time will tell. Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PoeticG Posted September 7, 2019 Report Share Posted September 7, 2019 Brown, Beckham Jr and Landry would be insane. As much as I hate AB from his steeler days, he now hates them too. Bonus points for him. Beckham is a beast but it's questionable he'll make it through a whole season. Brown could be some real insurance.

medicineman Posted September 7, 2019 Report Share Posted September 7, 2019 If he would happen to go back to Pisspuke that should of made the trade void and the Raiders should get the 2 draft picks they gave up for him? I know that will not happen but only speaking if it does happen? I don't see how any team would want him, He is a locker room cancer, feels he is the only player on the team, and is a BITCH.
