The problem is paying Bradford offers zero guarantee either. What if he get's injured before the season starts again? Paying (I believe kurtfaulk said $13m) without even playing a snap doesn't help anything either. And we may very well need some of that money to sign FA's (hopefully OL to help whoever is back there)
Whatever the Rams end up doing is fine, it's not my money. But paying Sam (as much as I love the guy) without seeing if he will even be able to come back is just bad business.
Signing him to a new incentive based deal that can benefit both sides is good for everyone.
Of course a new deal benefits us, but no new deal benefits him. If he resigns now, it's because he wants to be here and is operating on pride. Not pure business sense. And I don't think we will have much choice but to pay out.
