One would think he would have some clout after being their guy for so long. They obviously will want to be fairly compensated and use some leverage, but these players have a lot more than what people think. He can whip his bank account info out like Carson Palmer did to the Bengals years ago. Something like $80 million cash. Trade me or I retire. They moved him pretty fast. -

It was definitely a worst case scenario. A brusk, Chicago businessman coming into a small eastern seaboard town. I think Irsay took the biggest rap because it was such a historic franchise that was moved. The thing that killed Baltimore was when the voters voted down the Baltodome. Once that happened the clock was ticking. Baltimore ended up with a nice final proposal on the table, but the well was poisoned on both sides. The key to the move was that the NFL wasn’t going to fight a possible Irsay move after losing the court case to Al Davis and the Raiders. It’s actually a pretty interesting NFL history story if you take all the emotions out of it. I guess things turned out all right as Indy, Baltimore, and Cleveland all have teams. I feel bad for St Louis and San Diego as we have been down that road in Baltimore. The fans are pretty much in the middle in a dispute between an NFL owner, and the city. -

What about Cam Newton? Isn't he a free agent? -

I don't think Jimmy G's contract has any bearing. Why would Detroit want it, and why would it influence things. IMO, given the small dead cap figures, they'll just release him if they intend to go after Stafford or another. JG just won't have value, yet SF doesn't have to move him to get out from under it.
