LOL
Actually, this is responsible journalism. It has yet to be confirmed that Kamara is officially holding out or absent because of a contract dispute. Thus, NLF.com writes appropriately that his absence "might" be solved with an extension. Saying that it "would" be solved means that his absence has been confirmed as contract related. And that's simply not the case.

Furthermore, players can get fined for holding out (and the money can no longer be returned in the new CBA). However injuries that keep players out of practice, like mixons headaches, result in no fine.

Guess that means they aren't confident they can make a long term deal.

Who would they trade him to, divisions out. Any team that just burnt a high pick on an RB I'd argue is out. Stud RB teams are out.ARI
NFC East- All of them seem happy at RB, maybe WAS
NFC North-Bears maybe
NFC West-ARI maybe but they just tagged Drake so figured theyd work that out first. Seahawks, but theyve got 6 backs already. SF would be a very legit option.
AFC East- MIA, NYJ and NE in play
AFC West- Possibly DEN, doubtful though with them just paying MG3
AFC North-PIT possibly
AFC south-I'll throw HOU in here just bc of Obrien, Jags are full rebuild.

So only teams I see going for it are MIA, NYJ, NE, and possibly PIT, HOU, DEN, and WAS

Supposedly they are willing to make him top 5 (12 mikron range), and he wants CMC money. I'd ship him out, too, if that's what he thinks he can get.

Well, only teams that want to pay a draft pick and well over 12 million a year, would qualify, it seems like.

Yes I guess. I'd rather keep him and franchise him 2x though

I mean, it wouldn't be an RB trade thread without naming Philly as a trade partner.... :wink:
