Ditto! What he said.chris98251":3l1nz9sw said:Kam didn't plan this and his agent did a great job, Kam earned it.
If we're going to have a year that we have lower cap room this is it while we develop guys, I tend to think Kam will be involved somehow with the team as a secondary coach or something and they may hire him, he is so young and loves the game and is a great teacher from what I have read. Pete has a history of treating guys in his situation well, Kris Richard comes to mind. At least if they can't have his body they still get his mind.

I know it seems as fans we want all the money issues to just go away, but Kam deserved to be protected and I'm happy for him that he leaves his NFL career with his finances secured.
I would venture Mr Allen is involved in every major decision of the team.truehawksfan":1qj90jix said:What does Paul Allen think about this? Is JS mismanaging his money.
This isn't the first time the Hawks had to eat a players contract.
Matt Flynn, Percy Harvin lasted, what a year, year and half, so they paid all the guaranteed $$$ before the contract expired. And the team decided not to ask Beastmode for his guaranteed $$$ back when he announced his retirement. Now, we have the BamBam injury guarantees.
Man, glad JS isn't a financial advisor or money manager.....
