why not , bell wanted all that guarantee. Hes a RB they are just gonna use and abuse him , let the man maximize his money
Bell is an established workhorse who has been a stud in the league for years. Hell, Jacobs was never even the RB1 in college, let alone in the pros. If I'm the Raiders, I'd happily let him sit if he thinks as a late first round RB he's going to get a 4-year deal fully guaranteed, unless maybe it's like $4-5m a year.

Correct. And got quite a bit more guaranteed. Jacobs is thought to be the best rb in his class.
I missed all of this.
What are they arguing about? I thought Rookie contracts for the most part. It is what it is?

You're right but this also isn't thought of as that strong of a rookie RB class. Has any rookie RB ever had a fully guaranteed deal? If guys like Elliott or Gurley can't get it, there's no way a guy like Jacobs should.

Gettlemen woke up the morning after the draft and realized in a drunken stupor, he'd drafted Daniel Jones at 6th. My guess is that he's hoping if he doesn't sign him, he'll just go away.

GL to that team, if they don't fire him by the 2020 NFL Draft he will be making another top 5 pick for the Giants

They may just be doing the Browns thing, tanking like hell in hopes of amassing a ton of picks and then once they have them, bringing in a competent GM.
