BlainThePain Posted February 28, 2009 Report Posted February 28, 2009 http://blogs.nbcsports.com/home/JASON BROWN CHOOSES ST. LOUISPosted by Mike Florio: Friday, February 27, 2009 9:01 PMEarlier in the day, we reported at the temporary PFT safe haven site at SportingNews.com that center/guard Jason Brown had a little problem.He was holding a significant offer from the Rams, in the range of $7 million per year, but he didn't want to play for the Rams.Unfortunately, no one else was offering Brown the kind of money that the Rams put on the table.In the end, Brown apparently opted for the money.According to Jeff Darlington of the Miami Herald, Brown has agreed to terms with the Rams.As we'd heard it, Brown was hoping for the Ravens to match the St. Louis offer. But the Ravens never were inclined to do so.UPDATE: Albert Breer of SportingNews.com reports that Brown signed a five-year deal. We're assuming that the deal will be worth at least $35 million. Quote
Whur CHad At? Posted February 28, 2009 Report Posted February 28, 2009 Bummer. If he didn't want to play there why did he visit? Oh well Quote
ArmyBengal Posted February 28, 2009 Report Posted February 28, 2009 Just another example that there are MORE players out there than most think that could care less about the difference in winning vs. getting paid.It's a shame and drafting a center in the 2nd is all but a lock at this point. Quote
