Charles Godfrey Takes Large PAYCUT

[PantherMan89]

Captain is so butthurt with the panthers it's not even funny

[Cpt slay a ho]

hats off to godfrey, hopes he comes back healthy next season were gonna need him. good job DG also

[Hammerin'Cameron34]

We need that money for our rookies. People need to settle down thinking we're about to splurge.

 

We had enough for our rookies before this news.

Thank God

Trying to get Kraken signed? or are we saving this for Cam/Luke?

Thoughts?

Signing Kraken long term gives us more cap room. It doesn't hurt it. The cap # for a long term contract would drop from 13.7 million for 2014 to a more respectable figure. It depends on the signing bonus and years.

Restructure is not the same as an outright pay cut. Players do not lose money, they get more of it upfront.

They do if they see the writing on the wall.

"This is the contract we are offering. It is NFL vet minimum with the chance to earn much more by staying on the roster. Sign it or we cut you to market your Achiles injury to the rest of the league."

Its called 'between a rock and a hard place'.

I like the move. He can play a similar charles woodson rover kinda back. Cheaply. He was coming on (again) before he got hurt

[Beast_3000]

lol wtf

I don't even know why Captain is mad about it. Torn Achilles ??? Who pays a nickel back or back up safety that type of money?

[tiger7_88]

Now we just need Stew to do the same thing.

Not the same leverage.

A Godfrey cut would have saved us money.

A Stewart cut costs us money.

Now I'd like to see them try Godfrey at the nickel position.  This defense could become the stuff of legend.

PFT says Paycut

The latest is safety Charles Godfrey. According to Field Yates of ESPN.com, Godfrey has taken a massive pay cut, dropping his base salary from $5 million to $750,000. He can still make $1.7 million of it back in per-game bonuses.

 

Joe Person says "paycut" too.

 

If it's a paycut and not a restructure, then hell yes I'm on board with it.

 

 

[Mr. Scot]

Pay our rookies.

 

From what I've read, we could have done that already.

 

Forget who had it, but they reported that drafting at the 28th spot means our rookie pool was not going to be that large.

 

This is real money.
