Goodluck. What Bosa is requesting is unprecedented in NFL contracts for rookies. But the Bosa camp made a good compromise...pay the bonus money upfront or drop the offset language. Chargers being dickheads about both.

It pretty much negates the leverage of the employer. I would argue if this is agreed to it will change the relationship/leverage at the next CBA.

It's not really unprecedented though

quote:

Bosa’s camp has repeatedly expressed a willingness to compromise and accept either the offset language or the signing bonus deferral, but the Chargers appear unwilling to budge.

quote:

Precedent around the league certainly supports compromising with Bosa on either, or both, of these issues. Since 2012, each third overall pick has signed a contract that either contained offset language or a deferred signing bonus. Both Jared Goff and Jalen Ramsey, the players selected first and fifth overall in the 2016 draft, signed contracts with no offset language but with the signing bonus fully guaranteed in their rookie seasons.

Huh? It is actually the norm with the top picks in the draft.
