Lets listen to Ol Vern shall we...

quote:

Tight end Vernon Davis made a $200,000 decision last week and that decision was to skip out on the 49ers offseason training activities (OTAs).

The reason Davis decided not to show up? He's building his brand.


"You know what, every decision I make is in the best interest of my brand," Davis told Jay Mohr And my decision is to work out on my own and focus on building my brand."


That 'brand,' involves promoting Fantex, a company that's selling stock in Davis. Fantex paid the 49ers tight end $4 million up front in return for 10 percent of his future earnings from football, endorsements or any other income tied to his NFL career.

"It's all about building your brand," Davis said.


Seems its all about the BRAND.

STFU dude!

Well of course he thinks so. Because he's about to bargaining for his own contract extension wants Jimmy's pumped as high as it can go.

I'd love to pay Jimmy like a WR, but there's this little thing called cap space that there just isn't enough to go around of
