If Tunsil got 22 million a year, Dawkins could easily get 21.5

Suddenly, all the Sabres jerseys are 'second tier' quality, and all the players' names are misspelled...?

Just crazy money, now Dawkins price tag just went up so is he worth that?


No tackle is worth that

Have to give the man what he wants after you gave two first rounders for him. He had all the leverage.

All but $8M guaranteed?  Good luck with that.

 

 

I'll bet Tunsil threatened to hold out.  BOB is coaching for his job this year and that would have killed it.

 

This is one reason being head coach AND being GM is a bad idea. They should have different roles and objectives to do this properly.

Good lord.  This is out of control.  Every position is gonna get 20 mill a year before we know it.  
 

if Dawkins even asks about 20 mill a year we should trade him

As a general rule, I couldn't argue, but Belichick seems to be good enough at it.

 

Mind you, he never would have dished out 2 1sts without having a deal in place first.

 

He might even have cut him rather than pay him that much, tbh.

 

On a side note, not only has Tunsil done remarkably well for himself without an agent, he also gets to keep all the money without paying a shark. ;)

Isn't this the gas mask guy? Amazing how some of the dumbest people out there are making this much money. Good for him though. 

He's dumb because he smoked weed?

Belichick doesn’t ever have to worry about losing his job. Not the case in Houston, or almost anywhere else. Having said that, I can’t really say I love Belichick the GM. He doesn’t draft particularly well. You can’t argue with his success, but I think more of that comes from being a brilliant coach (and of course a cheater), than being a good GM. 

 

I think there can be an inherent conflict if you play both roles. The coach in you can reach for players trying to keep their job, while the GM should have longer term roster building and cap management as primary objectives. It’s hard to wear both hats, IMO.  

 

P.S. - I didn’t realize Tunsil didn’t have an agent. I guess he’s not too baked, or at least less baked than the Texans BOB. And you’re right, Belichick NEVER would have painted himself into that corner. This was just dumb all the way around, as I see it.
