I do think he very much skipped that exit meeting though, that he had to come out and defend. If he got an inclination last year that they weren't gonna just hand him a contract, I bet he was miffed.

Hot take: he is under contract for this season, he should fulfill his agreement.

That would be a fair take if the team had to honor all contracts too

We made this agreement with you that we do not have to honor and may choose not to do so. You, however, should honor it at all costs no matter what.

Hot take: **** pay the man and move on with the season.

I’m typically a “shut up and pay him” kind of guy, but I’m a little more hesitant with this situation because I’m interested to see how he performs without Bud on the opposite side. I know that it is a gamble that he still blows the doors off the league without that other side edge rusher

I like this. Time to tell my boss I’m not lifting another finger until I get my next 5 years of salary guaranteed.Other spicy take. Players should play for the agreements only if it's guaranteed. As much as Madden has been screaming about the HURR DURR contract signed for a year bit. Teams can go around and cut players instantly, effectively shortening their changes to earn money.Hot take: he is under contract for this season, he should fulfill his agreement.
I'm pretty firmly in camp player for this, unless all the contracts were guaranteed.

If Madden has never done a contract before finishing out the current one, I'll eat my shirt.

Well let's get real with this. NFL is basically the only place where this happens and there's millions of dollars on the line. These guys days are more numbered than anything else, so when teams cut them for salary purposes, of course the player should have some ability to bleed the teams dry while they can.I like this.

These guys are always one play away from stomping around like Shazier for the rest of their lives. They need to get paid when they can. The Steelers need to stop being tight asses and pay the man. The money and cap space are there. Pay him.

The only thing(s) stopping me from paying him are...
1) They've never needed to pay anyone to be the top defensive player. They can scheme a good defense usually and be fine the way they've always done things.
2) Watt is already here for Ben's last run, doesn't matter what Ben says about paying him etc. He's here now, on the cheap, but there is an argument from Ben to then pay others because he did take a break. But let's be honest, he took a "cut" because they were about to cut him anyways had he put up much of a stink I gather.

You’d still try and cash it, though.

This whole we-don't-guarantee-money-past-contract-year-1 thing is incompatible with 21st century football.
