[B]Five Hundred Thousand Dollars![/B] That alone makes it a big deal because it is incomprehensible to most people that he could leave that much easy money on the table. What could he possibly be doing that is worth passing up that money? He must be losing his mind!

That's a question nobody really cares about. How much athletes value their money? Who cares.

The only pertinent question, if you're a fan, is how this will affect the 2016 season. Answer: none.

Re: Camps, OTAs, Etc. Etc
 

Desean is in a contract year...maybe the last of his career. I expect he will be bringing it this year. Lets wait preseason before freaking out

Re: Camps, OTAs, Etc. Etc
 

[quote=MTK;1144049]It's his bonus, I doubt any of his teammates care what he does with his own time. Sure the coaches would probably like him to be there, but its voluntary work and they can't do a damn thing about it. In the end no one is losing any sleep over it.[/quote]

If I am one of the <$1M players, I am just shaking my head and laughing "Damn, must be nice" and saying to the coaches "Yo, Jay! I run DeSean's routes for you this week for the low, low price of $ 250K!"

he might be taping his reality tv thing right now, so it might not actually be 500k he's losing.

I was going to say this. If he has other obligations that are bringing in more revenue for him...then it may be a business decision on his part. He does have other outlets that bring money in.
I kind of co.pare it to my work environtemnt...if I have a voluntary day, and I miss...none of my Co workers bat an eye. And they actually agree with me missing if I'm doing side work and getting paid more than if I had come in.

Second article I've read this week commenting on Preston smith looking like a beast...

Re: Camps, OTAs, Etc. Etc
 

The Redskins are putting up with Jackson because they don't have anyone better. As soon as someone else is ready to take his spot, or he loses at step, he's gone.

No big deal on the offseason stuff. But it will be when he pulls his hamstring during training camp. And I would bet that he'll have some kind of issue in training camp.

Re: Camps, OTAs, Etc. Etc
 

Desean jax is a beast and people seem to forget that our offense took off when he got back on the field last year. The element he brings isn't easily obtained. D coordinators have to game plan for his ability to spread the field.

If desean comes out with a hot start to the season, McC should extend him.

Just to point out, he didnt injure his hamstring in TC last year. He fell into a blocking sled and messed up his shoulder which caused him to miss TC. Thats not really something that can be controlled other than having moved the blocking sled prior to that incident. He pulled him hamstring in the first game where he went from sitting on the sideline during TC to running full speed in the real games.

As for your first paragraph, that applies to everyone in the NFL. Players, Coaches, and GMs have to deal with that on a daily basis. Its just part of the job. If we had someone better than Trent at LT, he would have never gotten his new contract. That is nothing more than business as usual in the NFL.

Beasts block too

[quote=Irrefutable;1144067]Beasts block too[/quote]

D jax will never be a blocker, I mean look at him, not the biggest dude.

So I guess Jordan Reed isn't a beast with your logic, and he's a Tight fuckin End. He's suppose to block.
