Calvin Johnson To......

Retire??

 

Sounds like it's a very possible course of action.

 

Calvin Johnson Contemplating Retirement

[NKY Bandit]

Contract negotiation tactic?

Love me some Megatron!!!

Contract negotiation tactic?

 

He's not a free agent, so I don't think so...

[HammerTime]

Leaving a lot of money on the table.

Another Barry Sanders that would rather retire than continue playing for Detroit.

[ggclfan]

I just heard one of the NFL insiders saying that he would have to take a pay cut to stay in Detroit...that he will have to renegotiate to stay there because his contract is so cap unfriendly. If I was him, I would just say no and wait for Detroit to cut him. Then go to NE and have Brady throwing to him.

Or Green Bay.

I saw a tweet today that I found interesting. The Lions have six more wins than the Raiders since they chose Johnson over Jamarcus. I know both have been bad during that stretch but figured the were better than +6.

I don't think he'll retire. He would still be the best receiver in the game if he had a QB and a coach.

 

The problem is that the Lions owe him $20 million next season and there's no way they are going to pay that.

Calvin Johnson to New England Please!!!! Bill, I know you don't like to spend top $ on players, but WR has got to be a priority!!!

[woodsrider]

Or Green Bay.

 

Yes please.

That is interesting, especially considering they've made the playoffs a couple times. They also put up an "ohfer" one season so that doesn't help.

Megatron is 30, so 4-6 more good years.

 

Brady is 38 - Granted he still looks good, but remember Peyton put up MVP numbers as a 37 and 38 year old. Now at 39 he looks done.

 

Rogers is 32 - He'll be around for a while, but that's a darn cold place to play for a guy from Newnan, Ga.

 

Newton is 26 - He's about to reach his full potential as a QB, the Panthers are Super Bowl caliber right now, and Carolina is close to home.

 

Manning, E. is 35 - He should have 4 good years left. If you like the big stage, it's the place to be.

 

Andy Dalton is 28 - Is Megatron the piece that puts them at the top?

Jameis Winston is 22 - Mike Evans, Vincent Jackson and Megatron plus Doug Martin. Wow.
