GoPackGo23 422 Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 Maybe there's still a decent chance the Bears actually pay him and he stays? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sleepysock 811 Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 He's a special talent. Remarkable that he wants to stay in Chicago, but if he does then pay the damn man. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

At this point you lose years accrued. I think it's unwise to hold out at this point. I believe there's a reason we've never seen it before (that I can recall). Playing for a week or 2 and THEN holding out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
owenmills 5,326 Posted September 16, 2020 Share Posted September 16, 2020 Seems to me like most holdouts are either to pressure team to pay up, or if negotiations have broken down and the bridge is burned to play as few games as possible while still accruing a season towards free agency. Bell’s was a weird case where he’d already accrued enough years for UFA and they franchised him and he could sit the whole year and still hit free agency. So I guess it’s possible ARob could holdout now and then come back later to play the rest of the games he needs to accrue the season but more likely he’s just pissed off and cooler heads will prevail soon. He may even get the squeaky wheel treatment Quote Link to post Share on other sites

JAG_challam 232 Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 Completely wishful thinking since I own both, but a CHI/PHI trade; ARob for Ertz straight up - makes a ton of sense for both teams. Goedert owns the short/intermediate field, ARob takes the outside. Big QB upgrade for ARob and I have to think he'd soak up targets there once up to speed - maybe after a couple games? And Ertz is a great option for Trubisky who seems to not trust Graham. Plus it's Graham. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Let’s add to our max capacity Tight End room. Philly could work, but you like Trubisky forcing ARob the ball. Robinson almost scored vs Lions and if he did would of put up 18+ fantasy points. 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Brettg57 726 Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 Reports are out Robinson wants 18m a year, which is very fair. Bears want to pay him 15m a year. Cheap organization.. unreal. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
WaiverLooter 931 Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 If Woods and Kupp are getting 16 mil, then there's no way in hell Robinson should be offered 15m. The Bears are being cheap at the wrong time. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

They already have like 9 TEs on the roster, already paid graham and drafted one early. And to ship off the only reliable target for trubisky? The offense is s---y enough as it is. Unless your plan is for the bears to tank. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

SyNdicateZ 1,413 Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 The last 2 days local area talk radio here in Boston area have had discussio about Patriots potentially trying to trade for Robinson to help their WR corps if they feel in the next couple games they truly have a shot to make it to another superbowl with Cam this time and aquiring a WR would give them a Much better passing game.

lvsaint429 1,774 Posted September 19, 2020 Share Posted September 19, 2020 The Bears are an absolute joke of an organization. They’re lowballing their WR1 while making a Tarik Cohen extension their priority before the week 2 game? RUFKM?!?!?!?!?!?!? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JAG_challam 232 Posted September 19, 2020 Share Posted September 19, 2020 Suppose Cohen gets a deal. And ARob doesn't. Is there any risk he'd not play? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Probably depends on the “progress” being made. If it falls apart, I could see him refusing to suit up after this Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I doubt it, it wouldn't look good if he wants to hit the open market or be traded to get an extension. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cleanface 701 Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 (edited) I was going to trade for ARob w all my injuries. Sounds like I should be avoiding this situation?? Correct?? Edited September 20, 2020 by Cleanface Quote Link to post Share on other sites
