Gambo mentioned today that he has talked to a couple of players that basically said Golden was holding in.

Have to get something done with him soon.

Yup. He negotiated his own contract, IIRC. He’s only got himself (and his penchant for double digit sack seasons followed by disappointing seasons) to blame.
Yep exactly.. he literally negotiated this deal just last season if he was smart he would’ve done it on a production basis and bonuses… He took the guaranteed money and didn’t have faith in himself and Now he’s “paying” for it….oh well.

Good mindset to have if you want to be a cheap organization who nobody wants to come play for.

This is all true, but Gardeck making more money than Golden just doesn't seem right. Maybe Golden is holding in pissing at himself. Lol

Nope. This line of reasoning works if contacts were fully guaranteed. The team doesn't have to honor the deal they negotiated. They can just cut the player at any time. Why shouldn't a player ask for more when they clearly deserve it.
