		<description>You&#039;re right woody, but fans love to talk about something in the offseason.  I get a kick out of those who rip a player like Grant or Tramon who doesnt sign a tender for $450k, like its money out of their own pocket and the tender is equitable to that players resume.  Shoot, after taxes, union dues, agents cut, thats like getting a one year 100k job.</description>

		<description>I don&#039;t know why GB should be void of contract issues with players.  There isn&#039;t an NFL team that isn&#039;t dealing with some kind of player disatisfaction &amp; a contract.  It&#039;s a big-bucks business. A fan could go crazy thinking too much about all the off-field issues.
_____
No matter what there will be 11 players on defense (with or without Collins) on the field come game 1.</description>

		<description>This isn&#039;t a surprise. Andrew Brandt had an article about the Pro Bowl Problem back in February about how Collins would start showing dissatisfaction and start pursuing a better contract once he got back from the Pro Bowl. It would be something interesting to ask Brandt about if you ever get the chance.</description>

		<description>Am I the only one that don&#039;t see a problem in this? He wants a new deal. He won&#039;t miss any mandatory workouts. He will not hold out. He&#039;s mantaining his shape. He&#039;s studying the playbook. Bedard reported he even did punt returns.
If he&#039;s not hurting himself or the team, what&#039;s the problem with wanting more money or a longer contract? Just read this piece from Seifert: http://myespn.go.com/blogs/nfcnorth/0-12-88/Come-on--now--Would-Nick-Collins-really-hold-out-.html
I&#039;m much more concerned with Greg Jennings...</description>

		<description>collins = tool

don&#039;t cut him... he&#039;d just end up playing somewhere else.  let him sit.  then fine his a$$ for every day he isn&#039;t doing what he&#039;s supposed to be doing.

how can he figure he&#039;s making any money here?  if he sits and pouts he gets passed on the depth chart.  now he goes into free agency with one good year, a couple average years, and a year where he pouted under his belt.

if he mans- up and plays (and plays well) he only makes himself MORE attractive to MORE teams.

maybe he isn&#039;t confident that he&#039;ll be able to duplicate last year&#039;s performance.  i&#039;m not sure i am either.</description>
