Hearing Deebo talk about the offseason is so different from how the media painted him.

The point isn't that you can afford them. That's meaningless. That would be like JL going to Deebo and saying we are gonna pay you $14m annual cuz you can afford all you need on that. That would be a joke.

Point is for the Raiders or Phins he would be clearing so much more (millions more) on an equivalent contract. So we have to pay more to our players to have them receive the same amount of dollars after tax as some other clubs. Hard to pay more than other clubs in a league where salaries are hard capped. I guess every locale has it's pros and cons. Bay Area taxes are a con. Weather is nice maybe that makes up for it

No, he wouldn't be making "millions" more. First off, you still pay federal taxes. That doesn't change. Secondly, in the NFL you are paid weekly and it is based on the state you play in. The the regular season, the maximum amount of games the niners play in CA is 10 but that is once every 4 years. Usually it's 9. So 9/17 games are in CA.

Anyways, beyond the $$ players have to consider where they want their family, things they like to do, if a team is a winner, do they like the staff, etc.

This is from maybe 15 seconds of googling..

The residency rules are straightforward for most states that levy income taxes. If you own or rent a residence and spend more than half the year in a state, you're liable for taxes on all income earned inside and outside the state.

California, for example, has a top marginal income tax rate of 13.3%, which applies to income over $1 million for single taxpayers.

LeBron James, who just signed a two-year extension with the Los Angeles Lakers worth $85 million, will be on the hook for millions in annual state taxes on his salary alone, not to mention his lucrative endorsement deals.

Notice the millions in state taxes..

Calif state taxes are brutal.

Oh no I only made 20 million this year. Whatever will I do. I'm sorry but, taxes are a part of life. In sports yes you would lose out on money. In regular people life you get paid less in states with lower taxes. I accept and agree with people who want the money to be used more efficiciently. However people who complain about taxes for the sake of it drive me crazy. They build our roads, put fires out, patrol our streets, put their life on the line for our freedom, educate our children and more. Paying taxes IS patriotism. Now to wrap it back around to sports. I do not want players who's only concern is the dollar amount on their contract. Players should fight for their money. They put their bodies on the line every single game. They deserve to be paid but, if that is the only thing you care about then you need to get your priorities straightened out.

Interesting comments from AJ Brown on his contract negotiations. He noted that he got a lot of flack for his holdout, and so did Deebo, but in the end, he, Deebo, McLaurin, and Metcalf all got essentially the same contract. His major complaint was that the Titans traded him which made him look like the bad guy while the other three wound up with the same deal but no trade.

IMO, the Titans cut off their nose to spite their face. Brown is an All-Pro level receiver. Will Treylon Burks be as good?

John Lynch showed good judgment in playing it the way he did. Trading Deebo would have been a big mistake.

Is that for people who live in CA, or for anyone who works in CA even if they live elsewhere, cause Deebo doesn't have to live in CA, he can stay in FL if he wants to during the offseason, live in CA during the season.

Going to miss the next week with a contusion. He should be ready for week 1. But I hate that he is losing another week of building that chemistry with Trey.
