This is a direct quote from Buffalo news columnist Bob DiCeasare. I'm posting this because I agree with it a trillion perecnt.
"• I’m inclined to think a contract should be binding, but I have no problem with Jason Peters holding out for money commensurate with his accomplishments. I’d feel differently if the league guaranteed player contracts on their end. Why should Peters honor a deal when the Buffalo Bills have the option of terminating him at any time? Guaranteed contracts might be the olive branch needed to help solve the next round of labor negotiations. "
If I were Peters I'd do the same thing. I know that sucks to hear when it has to do with "our" team, but its the facts. YOu hear all the time people saying they have "outperformed" their contract.. Well in this case, he clearly has. He's one of the three best tackles in the NFL, and he's like the 45th highest paid.. That's ridiculous. Lock his ass up and spend the money you're getting from Toronto.
What do you guys think, not just about Peters, but about the quote printed. I think it's an excellent point.
