The only way you are ever going to see this change is if they introduce salary caps for each position.

I get the stances here, Gordon will never have more leverage than he does right now, the Chargers don't want to pay a RB with questionable knees...

The thing is the Chargers window is closing and if they don't pay him they likely **** themselves and close that window..it's a double edged sword.

Gordon and Elliot have the most leverage right now, hence what they are doing.
Sure, play the leverage if they think they have it... just don't be shocked when teams balk.

They can but usually teams cave and pay the guys.

We shall see... Gordon missed time with an injury last year and while only 26, this may be his one shot at a big new deal. Sorta the same with Zeke, he needs to quit putting himself in weird situations. This isn't the early 90s era for RBs.

I think Elliot will get paid, Dak isn't good enough to win without him, the Cowboys know this.

Gordon I dunno, the Chargers make weird decisions a lot and well Rivers is on his last legs.

Zeke just can't go 7 months without something weird happening though, I'd be cautious...

At this point, #Chargers RB Melvin Gordon’s holdout is expected to continue into the season, sources say. Contract talks have not progressed as he hoped, and he’ll continue to train in Florida for the foreseeable future.

Man, talk about someone WILDLY overplaying their hand.

That's why you don't hire Damarius Dildo as your agent.

Hope he pulls a Leveon and holds out the whole season!

He needs to get credit for the season or he will still have 2 years left on his deal I think

He has got one year left on his rookie contract and he must return before something like game 8 to accrue the season.

This.

His hold out is beyond dumb. He's gonna play at some point this season. The Chargers know that. He knows that. His agent knows that.

But he thinks he's a top back, man. And can't no one tell him otherwise.

Sorry running backs, the league has changed the rules so much that you aren't really that valuable anymore. Should have got good at corner or pass rusher instead!

RBs still make a shitload of money... What the hell are you talking about?

Name a high paid RB that has had an impact in the super bowl the last five years.
