Here is the proposal, that plus paying him

Too much, I think?

Newton straight up ?

Newton straight up ?

I don't believe that we've seen the best of Newton yet!

Remember... Jer'Zhan Newton missed essentially all of last year's offseason workout program due to surgery to repair a Jones fracture in his foot. During the first week of training camp, he was limited to individual drills and had an abbreviated ramp-up period to get back in shape. I want to see what he does with a full offseason and training camp before trading younger for older.

Me too just thought I would throw it out there

Joe Whitt offered a ton of insight into how and why the Commanders defense will be better in 2025

Scheme, personnel and preparation will lead to more turnovers, a stouter run defense, and better ability to close out games.

Kind of what I thought when the first inkling was posted. That said, "frustration with the lack of progress," might be a generational thing. We now live in the microwave era, where everything is processed using a 30 minute or less POV, and patience is in short supply. For the athletes it purely contractual but the other party has to consider both the athlete and the contract and that takes more time to reach a close as possible certainly about what's being contractually bonded to.

Given how much Redskin fans love Terry this won't be the most popular post. Terry has $25,500,500 to be in camp. For a guy who is considered a leader of the team this does not show well. Understandably Terry was so happy to play in a season where the team was a very good team last year and he was a huge part of that. His under contract and he should lead by example. Kirk Cousins played through 3 final contracts without a guarantee, the last of those three ended in a torn Achilles.

TMac doesn't seem like a guy who would want top dollar. If it's a fair deal it should get done but who knows what happens behind closed doors.

Agreed!
I can't post something about being patient, and not be willing to wait.

A lesson for everyone who works for an entity or another person when negotiating raises. Pause... determine what's acceptable below top dollar... then start negotiations at top market dollar... if that isn't workable, negotiate to what's acceptable but not a penny less.
