[QUOTE="digsthepack, post: 11958, member: 209"] Just read on ProFootballTalk.com that, because Grady took an advance of $65,000 on his 2005 salary, he cannot renegotiate this years compensation, per the CBA. The only option is an extension...which will not change his salary for this season. He can add money to the 2nd or 3rd years, but his salary this year is locked in. Given that an established veteran has to beg for a $65,000 advance, it is quite apparent that ol' Grady pissed away his career earnings and is looking to make it up with his new contract demands. So, in spite of his talent, do you think the Packers are going to pony up the dough to a guy who is 32, overweight, and blodding around on bad wheels? Let us not even mention his reputation of being a malcontent after a few years at any locale he has visited in his career...ala Sam Cassell. Clearly, the Packers have the leverage in this situation...the guy needs dough bad. Have him play the year or sit, and if there is anything left of his game following the season, consider a one year deal for 2006 or let him roll on outta town. Getting tired of this contract crap.
