[QUOTE="adambr2, post: 614464, member: 7277"] Seriously, this is why you are usually the common denominator in pissing matches. I can't "prove" to you that Raji turned down $8M with $20M guaranteed because he thought he could do better. Obviously there is not a link to a quote from Raji where he says "I thought I could get a better offer than $8M a year." Generally, players turn down offers because they want more money. I'm certain if he knew he would have ended up with a 1 year prove-it deal, he would have taken the original offer, but I'm sure you're prepared to tell me that he was prepared to leave $16M in guaranteed money on the table just to get out of Green Bay. Here are some quotes from Rotoworld on Raji over the last couple years: [URL]http://www.rotoworld.com/recent/nfl/5210/bj-raji[/URL] [B]Raji can earn "up to" $4 million. It's a good deal for the former No. 9 overall pick, who is arguably a minimum-salary player at this stage of his career. He can't stay healthy and hasn't put good play on tape in a while.[/B] [B]Raji continues to rue the November 2013 day he turned down a multi-year contract that reportedly contained $20 million total and $8 million guaranteed.[/B] [B] Raji has drawn no known interest elsewhere, so staying in Green Bay for now seems his likeliest endgame. Raji has zero sacks over his last 39 games (including playoffs), has zero forced fumbles in his five-year career and graded out dead last against the run among 3-4 ends in PFF's 2013 grades Former Rams GM Billy Devaney referred to free agent DT B.J. Raji as "pretty much just a guy." [/B] Everyone who watched BJ Raji play football in 2013 saw that he was a terrible player that year. It was easy to speculate that he wasn't going to make much in 2014. Yet instead of just admitting the obvious, you fabricate some bizarre theory that basically, 31 other teams were afraid of the Packer family mafia and didn't want to upset us by making Raji an offer. Strange how that didn't work out for us with Williams or House this off-season. Seriously man, you can't even possibly believe that theory. Raji didn't make much in 2014 because he didn't play worth a crap in 2013. It's not complicated. [/QUOTE]
