Football Schefter: Jalen Ramsey has asked for a trade - Page 404

Gotta love unions. :-)

Not sure we really know enough how about that provision with the little information provided in this thread. It would be interesting to compare that to some of the other big unions. I don't remember that provision ever coming under legal scrutiny. Also, I'm not sure the NFL players union is the standard-bearer for all other unions. I suspect the players union has negotiated better conditions than most other unions.

I don’t understand why they don’t just trade the guy to the highest bidder instead of creating more of a team distraction. If reports are accurate that teams are offering first and second picks from him, holding on to him longer seems like it would further diminish his trade value. Every week that passes is another game the team trading for him would be offering compensation for.

Also, if Ramsey really is demanding to be the highest paid defender (over Donald) in the game, that means his value is nowhere near 2 firsts.

And being on paternity leave he probably gets to count the entire season too :-)

I'd say he already has started to **** with them.

But others here at CP have assured us that all of his complaints are legitimate. Surely they would know.

What are then updated odds on Ramsey?

I really don't care if they are or not.

Oddsmakers are still talking to his chiropractor.

That's an honest take.

They’ve been pretty accurate, in terms of signings/trade destinations for players of all sports, since I’ve been paying more attention.

We started off the highest outside of the Jags then leaped them. If that’s still the same, they probably know something.

She’s 5 month pregnant so it should be until the season is over.

So does watching Ramsey be a dickhead to Jacksonville make fans not want him or do people don't care what he does to another team? Is anyone worried that Ramsey will do the same shitty stuff to the Chiefs if he gets pissed?

My concern is signing him to an extension and then him holding out once the new CBA is announced wanting a new deal. This whole thing is very complex.
