But I can't help but think that D-Rob wouldn't be so P'OD if he didn't feel like
he was getting the green-weeny ?
I dunno, you tell me ?

This is pure speculation, but I blame the agent. My gut feeling is that the agent took whatever Smith told him and spun it, if necessary, as I've gotten them to agree to not use the franchise tag so if we don't like the offer we can hit free agency and really get paid. When that didn't happen the agent blames Smith. Again, total speculation, but if I'm a GM that's why I would make sure that I have some direct communication with a player. Even with the best intentions things can get twisted when it's second hand.

I'm probably just trying to convince myself that a player I like and have pulled for isn't being a total D-Bag and doing all this because he wants to leave. I do think that this scenario, or one like it is at least plausible.

My other new fear, besides O.D.'s price tag after the Winslow contract, is that Ryans has fired his agent...I'm worried that he wants huge money and when his agent told him he probably couldn't get that much he fired him... and now he's going to sign with someone who promised to show him the money, like Rosenhaus. that's my nightmare at least.
