I do, but he never played on it. Remember, he was drafted pre-collective bargaining and inked a 5 year deal. This was the year he would have played on the tag, and it was a franchise at that, not a 5th year club option. (12.8 mil vs 10.5 mil) And if any of these guys deserved to play on an option it was him. (IMO AJ does not) Lucky for Dez they got his deal done.
I'm currently debating why there was a rush to sign Geno and Andy early but not AJ. And now that the Cowboys and Falcons have been proactive enough to ink their #1, to go along with the urgency shown by the Broncos in inking Demayrius Thomas, the market has been set. The deal should be done ASAP. That is my point in a nutshell. There is no excuse to not have it done in very near future.
Let's all hope that happens and this thread can wither and die. Fair enough?
