What is Saquan doing today?

Hilary : 6/3/2023 12:59 pm
Saquan is participating in the Logan bowl.
Logan was a 12 year old boy be friended by Christian
Mccaffrey when he was being treated for cancer. One of the boys last wishes was to set up a charity to provide computer games for children in hospitals.
The Logan bowl is a fund raiser. NFL players play Madden football against each other. Greg Olsen is announcing the tournament. Saquan is a contestant.

That's a great turnout of players.

These things are what should get more publicity.

I honestly feel kind of bad for him

I mean he’s already a millionaire, so I don’t feel that bad. But he clearly got some crap advice from his agent.

I've been saying this for years. I've been around a lot of NFL players over the last 20 years and a lot of them do a ton of good for the communities they are in or the communities they grew up in. Unfortunately you very rarely hear about it from the media. Meanwhile they'll push negativity for hours a day. Here in Tampa Lavonte David used to do a charity bowling event that was very fun and raised a good amount of money for charity. Unfortunately it was canceled because the turnouts kept getting smaller and smaller. It was hardly mentioned by local media and was NEVER mentioned by non local media.

He's been paid as a top 5 RB the moment he got drafted...it'll be alright

Certainly bad advice in hindsight, but if we're being honest, prior to free agency, did anyone anticipate the RB market cratering like it has?

Maybe it was good advice
That he just didn’t take.
Who would have thought?
It figures.

Irony aside, kudos to Saquon for contributing his time.

Pardon my ignorance, but was that a haiku?

Thank you Alanis lol. Well played.
Bill in UT: Not a haiku.

Just a reference to Alanis Morissette’s “Ironic”.

For all the talk about Barkley’s agent giving bad advice, we have no idea what transpired between her and her client. The decision rests with the player anyway.

maybe he's losing some steps
I dont think anyone ever questioned that SB was a good dude  
Rudy5757 : 6/5/2023 11:10 am : link
or even a talented player. If SB was a 2nd round pick the guy would be loved by all. But he was the 2nd pick in the draft and that raises the bar on expectations. He was doomed from the start. I didnt want him drafted at that spot and the value of RBs seems to support that but I do think he is a good guy with a lot of talent. You can get similar production for less money though imo.

It's been inevitable for a while. That it happened so rapidly is surprising, but not that it happened at all. RB have been viewed as a fungible resource for a while now, and while there's been a bit more stability at the top of the pay scale, the bottom end of the RB market washed out years ago. It was only a matter of time before the same valuation and roster-building concepts that were already being applied to RB2-RB4 were eventually going to apply to RB1 as well.

Maybe it happened a year or two sooner than expected, but most saw some version of this coming for a while.
