NFL is a disgusting league the way some of these players are treated. :hhh:

Running backs don’t matter but apparently you can hold them hostage if they request a trade. Black players need to stand up and get a better players association. Meanwhile the Coli loves bragging about ratings.

That's the thing I feel like when all of these was possible not too long ago it was squashed by other well to do blacks and jay z playing "chess" and people stopped thinking about unity and self now. This should have happened 4 yrs ago L(

No one is being held hostage, he is being held to the contract he signed. I agree RBs get shafted when it comes to 2nd, 3rd contracts but he hasn't finished his first one. Michael Pittman Jr is basically in the same situation, joined Indy in the same draft and hasn't gotten a new contract yet either.

What would you like a better player's association to do here? Force teams to extend early? Allow players to force trades whenever they want? What leagues allow this?

No big deal. All RBs are equally as worthless, right. Right?

I think people are gonna realize fast how this gonna turn on the NFL and how the talent will quickly be barren.
Cause if I'm a 4-5* RB in HS and I have any talent whatsoever in another sport I'm saying fukk football there's no money in it anymore and you know parents ain't gonna have their kids wasting time trying to go pro at a dead position

Or you could tell those kids to try out for other positions that are more lucrative. Players change positions all the time or at least try to and RBs shouldn’t be the exception to that.

The market always adjusts :yeshrug:

And top level RBs are still getting paid millions of dollars to play football.

RBs are going to figure out how to be more versatile in a passing league.

No one cried when the fullback went extinct.

If you haven't noticed, LBs are becoming increasingly less valuable.
