Like they blackballed Leveon Bell's agent too huh

I dont think the players give a shite about a team's feelings given the current owner/player relationship in the NFL. Ultimately the player is making the call, so the theory of the agent being blackballed by the team is silly.

Barr got $33 mil guaranteed at age 27. This is Cook's last crack at big money. I think it's naive to believe they have any sort of loyalty to a team until the pen hits the paper

Obviously it depends on how much a player is wanted, but this has happened many times. Teams don't like to 'agree to terms' with agents that don't keep their word. 'Agreeing to terms' is trust...'signing a contract' is final.

I can't believe someone as smart as you is even arguing this.

And you think new England is going to overpay by that much.

New england is not going to give Jared cook more than 9 mil a year.

So why would he back out of a guaranteed 8 mil just to go to the patriots with basically the same offer.

It makes no sense, y'all are just trying to find something to bitch about
