    You’re not wrong there. Besides Kamara’s Dumbass stunt in Vegas, he was genius with his money. Smart kid for not spending his checks while living off or endorsements
    F#*K OHIO!!!

      There was a lady that won one of those halftime contests for a million bucks. The interviewer asked her what she would do with the money and she said "Invest it so I can retire early". Then you got athletes that should be set for life and they blow it. Like Tatum Bellhop working at a cell phone store. My wife's first husband inherited $300,000 and promptly blew every penny of it.

      • The thing is most of these guys are dumb kids and think the gravy train isn't going to end. We as old people who have years of experience know it will end and have knowledge that the athlete with the huge ego does not yet have. No matter how many symposiums or veterans give them the message, it isn't going to sink in. Most of the time they are thinking, "sure pops, but it ain't going to happen to me."

        On the flip side, that gigantic ego along with the athletic talent has gotten them to this place. But I did think a rookie already spending that type of cash on an impractical car is a warning flag.

            • A rare positive thing to come out of the Urban Meyer era for the Jaguars. Getting a pretty sweet new football facility:

                • #5 pick in the NFL draft (and possible Lions pick if he were there) Devon Witherspoon is the only rookie without a contract and is looking like he will be holding out, for awhile anyway.

                  • Ah dang, I'm sad now that the Rams picks are dried up.

                      Ha! Yeah that was pretty fun having draft capital. Ended up being

                      Stafford and a ring for

                      Goff
                      Iffy Melifonwu
                      Jameson Williams (plus a pick swap with Minny)
                      J Gibbs
                      Sam LaPorta

                        Another notable is that #7 pick Tyree Wilson is on the NFI list with a foot injury. The red flag that was discussed during the draft process. https://www.si.com/nfl/raiders/news/...-training-camp

                        Christian Gonzalez appears to be getting snaps with the 1s for the Patriots too.

                          Aren't those salaries slotted?

                          • I read that though the signing bonus is locked in at a certain amount…the timing of the bonus actual payment is up for negotiation.

                            The Seahawks prefer to dole that out by slicing it into 5ths and paying by year…Witherspoon would like his bonus upfront.

                              I love Gibbs and hope he crushes it but the Lions might wish they’d have taken Gonzalez. I think he’s going to be a good one

                              • Tough about Wilson. I was surprised he fell but it sounds kind those whispers were true. His length is absolutely insane
