Ja’Wuan James Appreciation Thread

[megalodon30]

Not really his fault he got hurt as much as he did. I’m sure he’s very passionate about football; unfortunately his body is made of glass. Maybe he can try coaching.

I appreciate the fact we didn’t re-sign him.

Congrats to Mr. James he has joined this conversation.

Feel bad for him in a way. We overpaid him to start but injuries have just derailed him. It is nice to part ways with him though. I wish him nothing but the best in life... But time to move on.

I remember the reports that the Dolphins were laughing at the Broncos for signing him - they knew something that proved to be true.

I mean we’ve seen time and time again in the NFL that average offensive lineman get huge contracts because that’s how the market is.

Quality lineman don’t usually hit FA.
Look at Glasgow. Average lineman who is over paid.

good FA signings

Mitchell Swartz comes to mind immediately
Whitworth has played well for Rams

not too many come to mind

I saw that James was placed on the NFLI list. Denver can save cap space by refusing to pay him, but I haven't seen any report whether the Broncs have decided that or not. Do ya'll know anything?

Mr 63 snaps only time he didn't get hurt was when he deposits checks thanks direct deposit.

The Broncos won't be paying, but that is not - under NFL rules - a savings on cap space.

Yup. Save the cash but not the cap space.

The reports I have read state that the Broncos have cut him and don't intend to pay him anything more at this point. No news on whether they will go after bonus money that he has already been paid. It is expected that James will file a grievance and lose. I've seen whiny comments on social media from people who are mostly ignorant of the details of the situation demanding that the Broncos shell out more than the seventeen million six hundred thousand dollars that they have already paid him for his 63 snaps played over a three year span. In my opinion they shouldn't be giving him a single red cent from this point out.

 

[Draft Crazy]

Yeah- He was released on Friday. He gone!

Pass on shaking his hand. Wouldn't want to break anything.

I never asked did anyone buy a James jersey? Did you get hurt tear an ACL while you owned it?

I was looking at one awhile back, but while I was looking at it a light fixture fell and almost hit me. Needless to say I put it back and walked away slowly.

Every time I got close the James jersey rack - I lost any desire to play with my grandchildren.
