The official Aaron Donald holdout thread - #Questfor100

[SteezyEndo]

He's always trained at Pitt in the offseasons and what not I believe. I don't think it's anything new. Not sure why it's being reported.

Whatever I guess its not a big deal then...

 

[12intheBox]

I guess the point I am trying to make is that attitude is no good. And if we do sign him to a ridiculous deal is he going to want his own dressing room to seclude himself from the team?

It's a holdout. You don't holdout at the team facility and still practice with the team. Cmon man.

Ha. Someone had to say it. If you don't pay me more money, I'll keep coming to work like nothing is different!

Can you even get away with that @ any job?

I won't come into work til you pay me more.

Ok, so be it....Your fired...

Bottomline. Work ethics go a long way in life.

"We're going on a strike! I mean, we'll all be at work tomorrow on time and perform our duties the same way, but it'll be a strike!"

you understand you're in a aaron donald thread don't you?

nobody has better work ethics than him.

I guess this is where we see differently. I disagree with the holdout, and feel its unfair to the rest of the team. And you feel his work ethics are good for being absent. Got it...

i don't think you do get it. you make out like he's lying on his couch stuffing his face with twinkies while watching tv all day.

he's still getting himself prepared for the season, just like all the players in the facility.

You can if there are 31 other companies who would line up to pay you what you are asking for and more.

I hope he isn't...I am just wondering about the seclusion from the team. We got a few more weeks and that will come fast. He hasn't participated in any skirmishes or preseason games under this regime. He must understand Fisherball is long gone. Will he be able to make the proper adjustments on the fly if he does get a deal? This is what I think about ethics I think of things beneficial to others around you. Do you think absence is beneficial?

As long as there is high demand and low supply for your services, you can.

Sorry but not just like all the players on the team. He doesn't have a playbook and he's not getting coaching from Wade Phillips.

 

[12intheBox]

Teams have themselves to blame for holdouts by the way.

Consider this - the Rams offers are probably getting better - or at least closer in structure to what ADs camp is looking for. If holding out didn't work, agents wouldn't use it.

 

[blackbart]

Why...

Why not? I own 2 of his jerseys. We are the reason they have jobs. We have every right to use a public format and he opened the account. So why not?

 

[blackbart]

Based on what, he's been AWOL that is not good work ethics. Showing up because you signed a contract and letting your agent work out a deal is good work ethics.

Having a tantrum and throwing your helmet and being ejected from a game is not good work ethics.

Working out, essentially preparing for work does not equal good work ethics.

 

[kurtfaulk]

Based on that he's Aaron Donald. That should be enough.

Remember the beginning of old nfl films shows, where Bill cowher is talking face to face to one of his lbers and imploring him to "rush the qb"? That's gonna be wade's coaching for ad.

And that has a big zip zero nada to do with good work ethics

@blackbart Your link just went to Aaron Donald's twitter page so I didn't know what it was a reference too. I thought I was going to it to see he was announcing he signed an extension or something when I saw your link.
