Just the way I see it, but often it appears that the home team makes an offer, the player is insulted by it and ultimately signs for less elsewhere


Yeah, I also find it ironic that they're expected to reward Donald for what he's done because he played at a bargain price for his production. And its pretty obvious that Tru was overpaid for his production the past two seasons but they don't get rewarded for that when negotiating a deal.

That's more perception than reality.

Donald is going to get paid what he's worth regardless of his previous contract.

The same is true for Tru...

I just assumed they tagged him because he wanted more and wouldn't sign for what they were offering. I don't know any numbers.
