The bonuses are put in there at the beginning of the season by the agents. This forces the team to commit to the player prior to the season starting. If there was no bonus, then a team could hang on to a player throughout training camp and cut him before the season starts. It would allow the team to string a player along even if they had no intention of keeping him, if only to keep him from other teams. Putting a bonus at the beginning of the season forces the team to declare their intention on the player before the season starts. If they get cut because of it, at least it happens in the off season where they have a chance of getting on with another team as opposed to training camp when rosters are full and it is tougher for teams to sign the players. I agree getting cut in the off season at least gets the player an opportunity to try to find another team to play for, and being cut at the end of training camp ( which happened to my son twice with 2 different teams ) leaves virtually no opportunity for the player.

Idk but off the top of my head, milt was listed 6'0 here and 5'11 in the nfl. We had him bobby gordon aj3 then arland bruce with charles roberts catching a ton of passes too.

KptKrunch Posted April 21, 2016 Report Share Posted April 21, 2016 I guess we'll see but I know I'm a bit worried, especially about Dressler, didn't exactly light it up last year. Could have NFL blues. I hope the change of scenery gets him going again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll always have soft spot but since the Oilers are my hockey team now, I'm golng to make the Eskimos my football team.

He made it well known that he wanted to be a starter and didn't want to backup.. so they couldn't have kept him unless they dethroned durant. capishe?
