Richard Sherman is busy roasting people today
So all those people that talked shit on him for negotiating his own contract last year, he's hitting every single one of them with a big time receipt today because he met all of his incentives and got a nice pay day.
Dude has a place to talk some shit, they all ripped him and well he was right for betting on himself. |

Just because it worked out doesn’t mean it was a good deal at the time.
I’d say he lucked out more that anything and the success of his team as a whole helped him reach some of those incentives. |

Sure. But he took a calculated risk on himself. He had the $ to take said risk. He knew the consequences and decided to roll with himself and his teammates. This sort of free thinking and confidence in yourself should be applauded.

No doubt and he has every right to make them eat crow, I’m just looking at it objectively.

If you’re a very good player with leverage, you can likely get away with it, but the average NFL player isn’t doing that unfortunately.

Absolutely. Good for him. Great player and smart as hell. Stanford ain’t exactly Topeka High.

High School 4.2 GPA and Stanford 3.9 GPA. The dude has more than his fair share of brains.

He left money on the table. It’s dumb to not have an agent.

How about Bobby Wagner...he did his deal without an agent.
Lots of these guys need to realize they're getting ****ed in this game and paying a dude a lot of money to do something they could do. |

Yeah. If you're an elite guy, I think the agents are just stealing money that would already be there regardless. Mahomes does not need an agent to get a $40M salary from the Chiefs. He'll be giving away $4M of it to the agent.

Sure, but his agent does A LOT more than just negotiate his contract extension. And his agent was onboard long before Mahomes was Mahomes.
