Big Turk Posted March 13, 2023 Posted March 13, 2023 (edited) It might be "legal" to tamper but the actual tampering has been going on since the end of the season. How else do these players agree to contracts at like 12:01am on the start of free agency?? I am supposed to believe that they came up with the contract over the course of 2 days? Please.

By saying things like what do you expect your client to want, or hypothetically if we offered such and such money would your client be interested come free agency. By now I bet most the big name free agents already got their teams lined up outside of the few that want to make visits first. Since Covid hit most guys don't do the visit thing or if they do it seems more hush hush as I don't remember Von coming in for a visit instead we just talked to his agent and got a deal done. 1 Quote

Yeah.......what some don't understand is that the only way to prevent tampering is to not allow agents to talk to GM's. They talk all the time. Deals have been getting negotiated since the end of the season. Since every team does it, there is an unwritten understanding. The only time that it's a problem is when a player is under contract. Stephen Ross obviously thought wining and dining DeShaun and Brady were covered by the code. They were not. Teams are ok with free agent discussions but not outright negotiating with their under contract players without their permission a year before they are even eligible for UFA. 1 Quote
TheyCallMeAndy Posted March 13, 2023 Posted March 13, 2023 I assume they don’t have to have Von/Allen restructured until Wednesday, but I image they’d like to have it done before noon today? Quote
Back2Buff Posted March 13, 2023 Posted March 13, 2023 Free agency starts in 30 mins. This legal tampering is a joke. Most deals are done by Wednesday. It's gonna get interesting and fun Quote

I'm hoping we see a nice replacement for him in FA. Draft is very weak. Better next year though, so a one year deal on a vet wouldn't be a bad idea. Quote

Airseven Posted March 13, 2023 Posted March 13, 2023 Bills are in rebuild mode. They should stay the course and keep relatively quiet until the second wave. Maybe dump a couple players for picks in the meantime. 1 4 3 Quote

You are correct. Tampering is a constant in pro football, look at the Miami/Brady example, it is pretty humorous that some folk think it doesn’t happen with all teams and players, Quote
