LittleHurt05 Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 QUOTE (Jenksy Cat @ Aug 26, 2016 -> 11:48 AM) I don't think it makes any difference. He skips a year of wear and tear of the NFL and is just a year older for FA. Not playing for San Diego is probably worth that Unless he gets picked 3rd again, his rookie contract will most likely be smaller. That doesn't matter for the mighty Bosa tycoons though. The funny thing with this offset language argument is that so rarely matters anyway, especially with the 3rd overall pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since he was effectively the #1 pick (disregarding over-reach QB desperate teams) I can't see him dropping a ton. As long as he's top 7ish it's probably worth it (assuming he doesn't end up rolling with Cleveland or something) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lostfan Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 CFL salaries are a fraction of what they are in the NFL. The biggest stars in the game might get 250k a year, also the CFL regular season is half over right now (it starts in June). It's not that the CFL isn't popular in Canada (it is), they don't have the massive TV deals the NFL has. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean as both leverage, and a chance to play while flipping the Chargers the bird. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyyle23 Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 I just don't see much leverage Bosa can get by playing in Canada. The Chargers don't want to pay him a certain amount, and he is gonna go play for less in Canada. And if he gets hurt, he does nothing but lower his earning power.

That and it isn't like he's fooling anyone in the NFL like he's going to stay there or something. This isn't the USFL where they can offer him money on par with NFL teams.
