How many NFL players have sat out a whole season to re-enter the draft?

I hate to say it but what would be a worse situation to be in than New Orleans?I don't see it happening but its a possiblity.Didnt the owners promise him #1 pick money and now they are backing out?

The niners blow.

Williams is guarnteed 25.7 Million... Young is guarnteed 25.6 million..

Bush has to be between those... New orleans will sign him in 10 days or less.

Niners are on the comeback. Lawson is in camp early.. he will help...

Yeah, they were good when they were cheating the salary cap. They should go back to that.

Manny Lawson.... He will be the starting outside linebacker.

Watch any of Mario Williams college sacks.. Lawson is the guy flushing the QB to Mario.

The 9ers have a proposal for a much needed new stadium. They have informed san fran that if they don't approve it they have the option to move to LA. Once they get a new stadium approved.. they will have more disposable income. They had a nice draft last year IF alex smith pans out. Vernon Davis is a freak and Lawson should step right into Petersons vacated place at OLB. Things are getting better.. but all 9er fans miss uncle eddie.

I really don't care where they play as long as the on-field product improves.


Gore will be the 9ers leading rusher this year.

Hey 8, whats up with Reggie?? - Anhil8tor - 07-31-2006

Bush got 300,000 less than Mario Williams...

300,000 more than vince young.

Now Williams is playing for a team with no income tax.. while bush will have 9% of his money goto the state...

Hey 8, whats up with Reggie?? - BIRD33 - 07-31-2006

Bush is easily making it up in endorsements.

exactly.. no player ever sits out the whole year. look what it did to mike williams value.

Freddie Keiaho is gonna get fucked because the colts didn't leave enough money in their rookie pool to sign him... sucks for that guy.

Hey 8, whats up with Reggie?? - Anhil8tor - 07-31-2006

On the surface, Bush got $300,000 less in guaranteed money than No. 1 pick Mario Williams. After factoring in the state and local taxes, the difference is more like $2.658 million.

$2.658 million!

And if the base package is $51 million over six years, the difference between the Williams deal and the Bush deal isn't $3 million. It's $7.59 million.

Because Tennessee likewise doesn't have an income tax on salary or wages, Bush's in-pocket money also is less than that received by Titans quarterback Vince Young, the No. 3 overall pick.

Young gets $25.74 million in guaranteed money. After state and local taxes, Bush comes out $1.898 million behind Young on that aspect of the deal.

Although several readers have suggested that Bush might not be smart enough to realize the extent to which he's gotten the short end of the stick based on the application of state and local tax laws, we have a feeling that he "gets it." Exhibit A? That witty sound bite he offered up upon arriving at the scouting combine in February.

"No state tax."

Beyond the money issue, Bush lost out on the prestige of being the first overall pick, and he'll be living in a city that is slowly (emphasis on ssssslowly) rebuilding from one of the worst natural disasters in American history.

Also, Bush is paying agent Joel Segal for a slotted deal that pretty much anyone with half a brain and NFLPA certification could have done (that now excludes Carl Poston on both counts). Ben Dogra and Major Adams did Segal's work by negotiating the contracts for the No. 1 and No.3 picks; once Young was signed all Segal needed to do was get a copy of both contracts and work out something in the middle.

Of course, if Segal gets fired by Bush now, it really doesn't matter much; Segal still gets his fee unless and until the deal is re-done.

Even if Segal agreed to take a fee of only one percent, that's $262,000 on the guaranteed money for three months of foot-dragging and two days of "work."

Mike Williams sitting out and Reggie sitting out would be a whole different set of circumstances. Reggie ain't sitting out though, so it is irrelevant.
