ALF Posted April 11, 2018 Posted April 11, 2018 I feel bad for Richie and Wood if they both have to repay their bonus. If they are severely injured just don't do that.

FeelingOnYouboty Posted April 11, 2018 Posted April 11, 2018 I don't care that he was good for us. It was hard to root for that guy.

Kirby Jackson Posted April 11, 2018 Posted April 11, 2018 So it was about the pay cut? Shocking I don’t see this getting prettier. Richie is furious over the pay cut and Beane will play hardball as he did with Boldin. Be ready for shots in the media.

Behind closed doors, he could give ground to Richie and still save face. Richie blew this up himself. How big of a paycut was it? I thought it was mostly restructuring with more money up front?

The NFL can't stop someone from gifting money. McCoy would be responsible for the 40% gift tax to the IRS (another $120K). He would never give anyone this money. Plus he has only 1 season over 1500 yards and he's going in the opposite direction from that. He's just tweeting...
dayman Posted April 11, 2018 Posted April 11, 2018 I think he renegotiated and then went to doctor afterwords and realized his body is dying.

I can't condemn a guy for past transgressions. He made some mistakes, seems to have learned from it and moved on. Handled himself with nothing but class as a Buffalo Bill (in his 2nd tenure). Now that he's retired, I'm hoping to snag the guy for my tailgate crew. 1

I can tell you with 99% certainty that Richie does not know the draft plans that Beane and co. have.

Incognito took a $1.675 million pay cut last month to remain with the Bills for the final season of a three-year contract he signed in 2016. He will now earn $4.75 million in 2018.
Magox Posted April 11, 2018 Posted April 11, 2018 (edited) So Beane negotiates a pay cut with Richie so they have more cap room, Richie accepts, then he retires possibly because of the pay cut, yet somehow it's Beane's fault? Edited April 11, 2018 by Magox 1

It doesn’t even make sense considering that he’s losing money by retiring. He could have simply refused the pay cut, and if they released him he would be a FA and could sign elsewhere, assuming he has a market. If he doesn’t have a market, his agent would know that and tell him to take the pay cut. The fact the racial slur case is still under review with the league could have an impact on his market as well. Edited April 11, 2018 by YoloinOhio
