Osi - dont have to redo my contract if you trade for me

[Giants Of New Jersey]

http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com...o-my-contract/

He basically wants us to give him more money to not start. However, if he goes to a team where he is the full time starter, he will play out his current contract because being a full time starter will give him opportunity to perform for his free agent status at the end of next season. I feel that we make Osi look great and I don't see how he doesn't see that.

Ok Osi, hold out all season then see how big a contract you get next year.

One thing that I have never been sure of -- If Osi holds out this year, does he become a FA for next season or does he still owe a year to the Giants?????

[CDN_G-FAN]

of course that's his opinion!!! He doesn't care whether we get a 7th round choice (if his contract isn't reworked) or we get a first day pick (if it is reworked).</P>


he's doing what he has to do for him and his family (i respect that), but what a **** show this is becoming.</P>

Osi is Great and the defense is alot better when he is available. He always seems to make the big play when we need it.. I say we draft a DT cut Canty (he is a waste of a huge man) and use some of that money to pay Osi.. Osi should retire a Giant Period!

If he holds out every season he would remain under contract next year.

I believe he has to play in a minimum of 4 games or something like that.

Canty has been a terrific player for the giants...

He's been good, but his play does not validate the compensation we gave him.

And given how thin we are at DT, that would be rediculous.</P>

free agents rarely do... Im alright with drafting another DT and letting Canty go after this season, but cutting him now with no depth at the position is just asking for trouble.
