How about I promise you $33 over 5 days, but instead, I tell you to beat it before the 5 days is up and only pay you $21.Am I missing something here? How can only receiving $21 million instead of $33 have even the slightest, negative connotation to it?
WISTROM DONE?
The talk in league circles in the immediate wake of the release of defensive end Grant Wistrom by the Seahawks is that Wistrom is done.
Physically, the belief is that he's shot. In fact, there are concerns that he would not be able to pass a physical. There also are concerns regarding whether Wistrom even has the desire to play.
With that said, Wistrom started in all 18 regular-season and playoff games last season.
Wistrom, a nine-year veteran, had 11.5 sacks in three seasons with the Seahawks. And he received $14 million in guaranteed money.
Hey, in some cities, that's worth another $12 million up front.
there is some talk that he is shot - that he couldn't pass a physical if needed - then again this could just be the press painting roses after a cut to the fans for a popular (although overpaid player)
I like the guy from a depth addition standpoint. He's always going to play hard, and may not be in a position to hope for huge money. He got his big pay day already, and with our issue of trying to keep DE healthy, he wouldn't be a bad pick up if we can work the money.
