Foles Opting Out

[HaroldSeattle]

People really like to argue. We are talking semantics here. PE1 likes to argue, but it seems other enjoy arguing with him. Use the ignore button if you can't help yourself.

Ignore button sucks. I guess I could sign the ignore button to a contract with an option year included just in case.

Sure it sucks, but when you see threads like this one, seems obvious that some need it. Otherwise you won't see stupid threads go on and on and on......

I feel this is the appropriate time to interject a slight tangent.

Foles > wentz.

That’s it.

Carry on.

The length of the contract calls for 5 years of service that can be shortened by one of the parties to 4 years.

That is an identical situation to David Price’s seven year contract which I used as an example earlier.

There is no “extension” in the NFL contract. It is all one contract.

 

[handicappers]

Bingo!
It was CHANGED from a 4 year contract

Wrong. All first rounders have 5 year contracts

 

[PhoenixEagles1]

Cool?

Cool what? Cool you can't show the 5th year option isn't in the contract.

Cool if I get proof you’ll apologize

Nope it calls for 4 years and can later be changed to 5. You got it backwards

I just Skyped the editor of Athlon' magazine...waiting for answer.

Sure. You won't get proof

 

[PhoenixEagles1]

No, you are missing the point. I am calling the contracts what they are in their original form and before someone exercises their option because there is no guarantee that they will or legal commitment to. So if you call Price's contract a 7 year deal (what it is before his option) you need to call the 1st rounders contracts 4 year deals. You can't have it both ways.

And legally they aren't terminated early if the team doesn't pick up the option. The action is to extend it to the 5th year. If you do nothing it just ends at 4.

Thank you for explaining what Jarntt explained. The team has the option to change the original 4 year contract to 5 or can just abide by the original 4 year contract.

No... they can decline/not accept the 5th year. You can’t “change” contracts dumb dumb

 

[Manster7588]

Funny thing is we've already have shown where the 5th year option is in fact written into contracts, PE thinks an agent will waste his time answering an email.

He’s already proven that he’s a fucking liar... how can he be trusted.

Answer this question.

Is the 5th year option written into the contract before its signed?

 

[Manster7588]

You know it's illegal to change a contract without all parties agreeing. When teams exercise the option they didn't change a damn thing.
