“So now, barring an unexpected trade, the #Chargers say Melvin Gordon can play for $5.605 million or not play at all https://t.co/ibxORCSDK5”

Where do you take Ekeler in standard?

I'm up soon in the 7th round

The chargers gm is doing the smart move. Why pay him when he has one more year under contract. If he doesn’t play he is still under contract Melvin got no choice. It’s a smart business move run him into the ground this year and move on let someone else pay him. Unless he retires and becomes the face of the xfl.

@taintman now.

We all know who's winning the AFCW anyways

Sorry fantasy rosters.... you will not be getting points from Melvin thus yer

@chubacub The Raiders☠️

@Koolaid6015 this is what’s called hardball negotiations. Gordon isn’t gonna pass up 5 mil to get a bad reputation and take less. Bell didn’t get anywhere near what he wanted originally.

Showing up week 10 it’s official

@NachoTaco and pass up the 10 game checks?

Yup doing the ole bell move

@NachoTaco where is that confirmed?

He’s not risking it .. he will wait on that big contract guaranteed money to find his way out

@NachoTaco gonna pass up on the 3 million in game checks. 3.3 mil to be more precise?

Dude took Melvin with the 6th pick in our draft lol... will have to start Ingram instead now.

Everybody is hyped on ekler but he was only good when Gordon was on the field the weeks gordon was out ekler wasn't producing for the chargers ... but will see what happens in the season

Money is not an issue .. he gets all this time off to enjoy life .. he doesn’t care if he plays again

I like money

Me to

Anyways if you read that quote carefully, what negotiations after the season? Why would they negotiate after he hangs them out to dry. I think that’s a hint he’s gonna suck it up

Too

I need it to pay for all my fantasy leagues
