View Full Version : Peters Has Asked for A New Deal 3 Different Times With 3 Different Agents

Peters already has come calling for more money three times. Each time, it has been in the months after he hired a new agent. It's not a coincidence. Less than a year into their relationship, Parker and Peters have this much in common: Neither is making a penny off Peters' current deal. http://www.buffalonews.com/sports/story/425611.html

I didn't know this! What a piece of crap. This isn't the first time he wanted a raise, but the 3rd! 3 different agents, and Parker is not making any money off of Peters because he currently didn't get a deal for him yet, so both Peters and Parker have a lot riding on a new deal, hence why such the hardline stance. This makes so much more sense now. I think Parker has a whole hell of a lot more to lose than Peters does this season. If Peters still shows up, he gets paid, if Peters shows up though, that means Parker doesn't get paid a dime all season long because Parker has no negotiated deal with Peters yet to take a percentage of money from!

I don't disagree with him being under paid and deserving of a top 5 OT contract. But I can't get over the way he has approached this.

I just cannot side with the holdout no communication stand point.

If Peters comes in and busts his ass I would like to see both sides start talking for next year, but I still expect Peters to show up while the process takes place.

I was starting to think the same thing. It reminds me of Travis Henry who needed a new contract just because he was broke. :ill:

You have to wonder why he's gone through so many agents, almost a new one every season. What's the deal?

because he's moved from an undrafted free agent to a premier player probably. And then every one wants to renegotiate so they can get paid.

The next contract that Peters signs should have a clause that reads, "This really is a contract this time, and we really, really mean it."

How is Peters not making a penny off his current deal?

HE ISN'T GETTING PAID! He is getting fined currently and there will be no game checks unless he actually is on field.

That would be his own fault. He would be making millions if he just showed up.

Exactly. That is why he is going about this the wrong way. This is also the reason why it would make sense if he came back just before the next game to get that check.

I agree, his tactics have been stupid. However, the Bills have renegotiated other players contracts with 3 years left on them, so why start this whole hardline with Peters??? Peters is a moron, but this organization isn't much better.

Just because they make mistakes doesn't mean they have to repeat them.

And the talent on the field is directly connected to the FO, who's in the FO is directly connected with the owner. Fish rots from the head down, I blame Ralph "Life-Long Loser" Wilson.

Yes, they renegotiated those other players...they came to camp and were present for everything so of like Evans right now.

Further, we have no clue what his agent asked for. How high would you be willing to go to sign Peters? #1 paid tackle in the game?

And yet Evans still doesn't have a contract and the pre-season is over with. To answer your question he is not quite yet worthy of number one money; he's on the brink though.

There's a big difference. The other players that had 3 years left on their deal were classy guys and didn't hold out. They stuck to the team unity and kept working hard, showing that they are committed to the team. Jason Peters was a piece of **** that decided to hold out and sit on his couch and eat Mighty Tacos. :ill:

You are telling me that after one season at LT, probowl or not, that he is the almost the best LT in the game?

I'm telling you that he's amongst the best OT's in the (left or right). And there are more than enough "experts" echo my thoughts. I think he's been a top tier OT as of 2006.

The only reason players ever even fire agents is because another agent comes along and says, "I can get you a better deal."

Then, when that happens, he has to deliver for his client. he'll never have any credibility when he tries to do the same with another player. And more importantly for him, he never gets paid.

Yeah, Jason himself has a lot to be responsible for here, and he's certainly chosen a horrible path. But it seems his biggest issue may be the way he allows himself to be so manipulated so many times by so many people.

Parker is really the one who started this mess and he is the one that is still causing it to drag on like this.

I don't think Peters understood the position he was putting himself in at the beginning of this and now that it's gotten to the point it has, I think he has no clue as to how to get out of it.

1. Fire agent.
2. Report.
3. Peters is out of it.

At this point Parker just scored major $$$$ with the Jackson deal. I'm sure there wouldn't be any heartache if Peters were to part ways with Parker and just report. It takes the heat off Peters as long as he falls in line like the Bills requested of him.

Get a new agent and get back to work. The money comes next season numb nuts.

i know Josh Cribbs isn't holding out but it looks like he is up to the same crap.

Before his Pro Bowl season, Josh Cribbs signed a new six-year contract with the Browns. Then he changed agents. Now he wants a new contract. Or his new agent, Peter Schaffer, wants a new contract so that he can extract his agent fee from Cribbs.....
