Weird take on something that has so many layers to it and is based on how a guy gets paid and supports his family.
how dare they not take whatever the team gives them, how dare they hold out when it's literally the only thing they can do to try and get a market value deal. How dare they not go out on the field without a deal, when they can literally get injured at any min and lose millions and millions of dollars.

Supports the family....is that a serious comment.
If your going to hold out and disrupt the team for more money outside of your contract, you better back it up. Dont hold out and then s**t the bed. Be a professional.
I agree. Contracts aren't based on what you did, they're based on what you will do… which is inevitably less than one would do with a full camp.
each day holding out should come with a $$ loss per day missed (not penalty… penalties are for the existing contract.)
a $30mil receiver who missed entire training camps will inevitably not perform to their $30mil potential
