It’s hard to buy a fortune!

Now, Lu Yiqi finally knows why Wall Street has repeatedly banned internal news, because knowing the news one step ahead means grasping the key to the turbulent rain. Lu Yiqi's ultimate advantage finally slowly reveals his original appearance and realizes his huge potential.

In addition to two Hall of Fame-level defensive superstars, Navorro Bowman and Keno Atkins, Griffin also signed a series of defensive stars:

Cornerback Richard Sherman, linebacker Malcolm Smith, safety Shishade Jones, cornerback Patrick Peterson.

Among the four players mentioned above, except for Shishade Jones who was unable to become a superstar due to continuous injuries, he only "was" shortlisted for the Pro Bowl twice. The other three players are all Hall of Fame reserve players and can win their own position as the top contract in the league.

In other words, they all have the standard of becoming the golden signboard of the visionary blueprint.

Before and after, Griffin signed a total of eleven players, including five in the offensive group and six in the defensive group, but the overall quality is different.

Of course, in terms of strength, ability, status, league status, etc., these eleven players are all real main players who cannot be beaten and have achieved corresponding achievements in their positions. However, it is another matter to do what kind of recognition of these achievements can be transformed into salary contracts.

Among the offensive players, only Antonio Brown has the ability to get a top contract, while Jimmy Graham missed the opportunity to negotiate a big contract due to injury.

Among the defensive players, all five can reach one percent of the top salary level in the league. If you add a potential jj-watt, it will be even more of a golden lineup. At this time, the top player lineup of Foresight Blueprint has already begun to show signs, and there is no need to worry about the future.

In this way, the Foresight Blueprint can indeed gradually establish an image of reliable trust, because defensive players are indeed relatively weak groups. Whether it is salary negotiations or endorsement contracts, they are not as dazzling as offensive players. If an agency appears, it is willing to give more trust and expectations to defenders, then the external image will inevitably undergo subtle changes.

"The player who impressed the most?" Faced with Lu Yiqi's question, Griffin thought seriously, "Malcolm Smith."

This is a totally unexpected answer.

Lu Yiqi had conceived several different options, but Malcolm was not among the options, "Why?"

"What should he say? He doesn't believe in Wall Street." Griffin gave a very unexpected explanation. "He always thinks I'm trying to deceive him? The so-called deception? Unlike Edelman, it's not about my qualifications? It's about my doubts that I might share his interests and dividends."

Lu Yiqi was stunned.

Griffin nodded and agreed: You heard it wrong? “He thinks that the agent is just sharing his interests with nothing, but he doesn’t need to do anything? He can complete the contract negotiations by himself, so the 3% dividend I share? Isn’t that the interest that could have belonged to him?”

"Haha." Lu Yiqi laughed happily? This was definitely an unexpected situation, "So, how did you convince him?"

"The draft," Griffin explained, "I told him? Maybe? His contract can be negotiated by himself in the future, but the draft's self-promotion cannot."

"Rookies need to appear in different training camps, show themselves as much as possible, and let the team know themselves as much as possible, including some promotional image packaging? Otherwise, in the vast crowd, relying solely on scouts to explore? It is difficult for the team to see him, and there are too many uncertainties."

"Isn't this what he is good at? It needs to be handed over to me. Maybe, in the future, he can contact me with the contract? And then negotiate with the team himself? But before the draft? He needs me as the spokesperson."

Lu Yiqi suddenly realized, but was amused and laughed.

Griffin then added, "So I signed with him for three years until the end of the rookie season. As for what happened after that, well..." Griffin paused, "We were already strong enough by then, and there was no impact on missing one Malcolm."

"Interesting." Lu Yiqi tasted the black tea in his hand and gently slapped his head with relish. It was a job for Griffin, but it was a story for Lu Yiqi. It was like "One Thousand and One Nights". Listening to those legendary stories carefully, his comfortable appearance made Griffin speechless.

Griffin took another sip of the coffee in his hand, "When will we set off for the south? We agreed that this must be a road trip for luxury, otherwise I will go on strike!" After that, Griffin also waved his fist to Lu Yiqi and demonstrated fiercely.

"No problem, no problem. We bought a fully equipped RV and traveled south all the way. What do you think?" Lu Yiqi had already figured it out.

In terms of time consumption, it is indeed more convenient for aircraft to save time and effort; but Lu Yiqi skipped the vacation directly and was ready to go to work. He didn't want the entire work itinerary to be too tight - anyway, the university training camp, team training camp, and the official additional training camp have their own schedules, so there is no need to rush together, arrange a road trip, and relax while working. This is a good choice.

"It's going to be two weeks later." Lu Yiqi thought about it seriously, "I need to have a meeting with Thompson to discuss it, and also have to have a video conference with the coaching staff."

In fact, the coaching staff are all on vacation.

Before officially entering the work, Lu Yiqi gave the entire coaching team and the behind-the-scenes working team three weeks of vacation. During this period, they were able to freely control their time. Lu Yiqi completed many preparations alone. However, before officially entering the rookie work, Lu Yiqi still needed to exchange some opinions with the coaching team, so he took up two hours of their time, exchanged opinions through video conferences, determined the basic framework, and other work would be started after the holidays were over.

"Thompson..." Griffin sighed meaningfully, "Well, this is indeed a huge project, don't you have anything to do?"

How should work during the offseason be carried out?

It’s very simple to say that it is simple, use your strengths, supplement your shortcomings, and create a more complete team lineup.

It is extremely difficult to say that players need to renew their contracts, which players need to transfer transactions, which positions need to be strengthened, etc. How should players be introduced in the free agent trading market, how should the draft be arranged, the team should look forward to the future or pay attention to the present, etc., because NFL is a hard salary cap, the team must make choices.

The job of the team manager is very large and tedious, and it is even more difficult than imagined.
