Biggs Posted Sunday at 06:49 PM Share Posted Sunday at 06:49 PM 3 hours ago, bgivs21 said: Incorrect. Jets are not paying the 12 mil in fines. They gave him incentives in the contract to offset the fines. So Reddick has to come in and perform, he can't mail it in for the rest of season. What are those incentives? Do you actually know what they are? Or is it simply the Jets are paying him more per game to compensate him. According to Schefter. Quote New York has agreed to “waive” over $12MM of fines that Reddick accumulated as a result of the holdout in order to convince the edge defender to report.

It's the same thing I said: Yea you don’t know what they are. It could be for reporting and passing a physical. Let’s wait and see what both sides gave up to get him to report. It sounds like he has incentives to make back his lost salary. The incentives to get him in may not be based on playing metrics. They are basically paying him back the fines and offering playing incentives to get more. I could be wrong but I’m skeptical that he has big incentives to get the fine money back.

Sperm Edwards Posted Sunday at 09:12 PM Share Posted Sunday at 09:12 PM How it sounds thus far: It took Reddick firing his agents and then getting no trade interest after that to get him to show up, and will likely result in him losing millions in the process. He’ll roughly end up with the rest of this year’s salary ($8MM) and that’s it, with his cap hit being ~$6MM higher than what he takes home. The fines already come off the (remaining) game checks. Reddick will have the chance - via performance incentives - to effectively take home his game checks sans fines. That difference will still come off the Jets’ cap, but just to the degree they’re earned. Anyway it’s not likely to be plainly $8MM + up to $12MM ($20MM total). It’s $8MM minus the $6MM in fines totals plus as much as $12MM = ~$14MM max (but he’s probably unlikely to hit every incentive - e.g. all-pro - to reach that max but maybe it’s reasonable he’ll hit enough incentives to wipe out $6MM in fines). Hard to say how much of the fines totals he’ll erase without the dollars-per-incentive details spelled out, but sans details, so far this is what it sounds like to me. Reddick’s fault primarily: Whole thing would’ve been easier to work out if he’d held in instead of holding out, so his fines have to come off the cap. JD’s fault in top of that: If he’d granted Reddick permission to seek a trade much earlier, maybe way back then Reddick would’ve seen no one else is knocking his door down, and maybe this could’ve been banged out. Hard to say if that’d have done it, as Reddick hasn’t been acting rationally throughout. Net: the Jets make the playoffs with Reddick on an under-market contract OR this impasse may have made the difference in 1-2 narrow losses that keep them outside looking in, and then more heads roll in January. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ecuadorian Jet Posted Sunday at 09:49 PM Share Posted Sunday at 09:49 PM You know who else was supposed to make the Jets better? T Smith. Yet, in typical Jets fashion that pro bowler now sucks donkey balls. This idea that Reddick makes the Jets better.....I will believe it when I see it.

EM31 Posted Sunday at 10:16 PM Share Posted Sunday at 10:16 PM Until we understand the nature of the incentive clauses none of us is in a position to understand which side won, which side lost and to what degree. If for example they are "become an all pro" or "get 12 sacks" then i would say that those are almost impossible to reach starting in week 8, 9 or 10 depending on his current level of fitness. In the case of the 12 sacks, if by some miracle he does average more than a sack a game for the rest of the year then the Jets are the big winners there. So is Reddick because that kind of a performance will get him paid next year but this year was always about the audition for next year anyway. It is a pity it took him half a season to understand that. Right now this looks to me like Reddick caved once he found out that there is ZERO market for his services and that the Jets included some vague language on secret incentives which gives him a fig leaf to pretend that he did not cave. I think that examining the market for his services left him in no doubt the the ONLY chance he has to get his money after all of this is if he comes in and plays like a maniac for the rest of this year. I doubt he makes any of the "secret fig leaf" incentives and that he will be working the rest of this year to pay some of those fines. And yes, risking his health essentially for free in order to do so. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So if this guy is in shape and really wants to play can he make a difference. If so it could lead to a better second half of the season. The second half of the season won't matter if they lose tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
varjet Posted Sunday at 10:23 PM Share Posted Sunday at 10:23 PM This is too complicated for me, but it does appear that Woody could end up subjecting the Jets to a higher cap cost for Reddick than if he just showed up. In other words, if they got Reddick in the door it would have cost the Jets like $14mm in cap, but now it is 11/17 of $14mm, plus potentially in total more than the original $14mm to cover the fines. All I know if that maybe this season turns out interesting, but it will be a long time before the Jets are good again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rangerous Posted Sunday at 10:26 PM Share Posted Sunday at 10:26 PM This should be good news. The jets really need a guy who can set the edge. But, much as I hate to admit it, shows the value of having a top agent.
