SAN DIEGO -- In an action that could result in their first-round selection sitting out for the foreseeable future, the Chargers announced they have pulled their offer to defensive end Joey Bosa after he declined to accept the teams best offer on Wednesday.Points of contention in the contract impasse still include offset language and the earlier payment of deferred signing-bonus money. Bosas representatives called the teams move unfortunate.?The Chargers said in a statement that they presented Bosa with an offer Tuesday night that included:an initial signing-bonus payment that is larger than any rookie has received in the past two NFL drafts;more money in 2016 than every rookie in this years class except the Philadelphia Eagles Carson Wentz;the largest payment and the highest percentage of signing bonus received in the first calendar year of any Chargers first-round pick since the adoption of the NFLs collective bargaining agreement in 2011.The Chargers selected Bosa with the No. 3 pick in this years draft.?He is the only unsigned first-round pick from the 2016 draft.In a statement released Wednesday night, Bosas representatives said the Chargers have decided to manipulate facts and negotiate in the media.?We will say that it is ironic that the team now takes issue with the timing of Joeys arrival, since the Chargers unilaterally decided to remain silent for the first 14 days of training camp, instead of replying in a timely fashion to the proposal we made on the eve of training camp on July 28th, the statement said. At this point, all we can do is continue to fight for a fair contract on behalf of our client, as we do for all of our clients.The Chargers can focus on trying to sway public opinion, but our focus will remain on our client and securing a contract for him that is fair and consistent with his draft position.According to a source familiar with the negotiation, the Chargers offered to pay Bosa 85 percent of his $17 million signing bonus at the time of signing and the rest in the new league calendar year in March. Bosas camp remained steadfast in receiving the entire signing bonus by the end of this year.The Chargers also appear unwilling to move off the inclusion of offset language in the contract, pointing to the fact that 29 of the 31 first-round draft picks in this years draft have offset language in their contracts.Im highly, highly disappointed in the path weve had to take, Chargers owner John Spanos told the San Diego Union-Tribune, regarding the teams decision to reduce its total financial offer. Its so overly clear we had no choice. It would have been more difficult if I felt they were being reasonable. But when youre dealing with someone who isnt reasonable, it makes it easy.Im blown away. At all costs, I wanted to avoid going down this road. They made it overly clear we had no other option. ... Its absolutely asinine. He would have gotten more cash in this calendar year than anyone except [No. 2 overall pick] Carson Wentz.The Chargers and Bosas representation stopped communication on July 28 once the team realized the Ohio State product would not report to camp. However, talks picked up in the past two weeks, with the Chargers wanting to get Bosa into camp so the team could get him ready for the regular season.He cannot be traded this season because, according to NFL rules, he had until Aug. 8 to sign his contract in order for the Chargers to trade his rights to another team. If he remains unsigned this season, he is permitted to sign with the Chargers only until the first day of the 2017 draft.Bosas father, John, also was a holdout as an NFL rookie. John Bosa was a defensive lineman drafted No. 16 by the Miami Dolphins in 1987 and held out 41 days before signing his rookie contract, according to ESPN Stats & Information research.The Chargers dropped Bosa from third string to fourth string at defensive end on the teams latest depth chart. Darius Philon is listed as the starter, followed by Tenny Palepoi, Zamir Carlis and Bosa. Cheap Air Force 1 Wholesale .

Clarkson hopes his tenure in Toronto earns him that kind of stature, but Clark already sees the 29-year-old as a better player. "I havent got that talent," Clark said Thursday after he and Clarkson worked with some kids at the teams hockey school. "He brings all parts of the game. Its not a one-dimensional game. Whatever game you want to play, thats how hell play it. If its going to be a physical night, hes there. If its part of putting the puck in the net, hes there. If it gets even rougher on a different night ... Dave can play every part of the game, no matter which way the game goes." Clarkson, who signed a seven-year, US$36.75-million deal with the Leafs last week, has plenty of work to do to live up to that contract. That includes scoring and being the kind of grinding, physical force he was with the New Jersey Devils. But Clark, who knows a thing or two about pressure after being the top pick in the 1985 draft, thinks its unfair to count on everything from Clarkson, who has just one 30-goal season. "Dave will come out and play his style, especially at home," Clark said. "I think his style suits that coming in here because this isnt really a road building for a lot of teams with 10 hometown boys usuually on every other team.dddddddddddd Its good. It reminds me a little bit of the old days ... its going to be a long night when youre playing against him." Clark had a similar impact during parts of 12 seasons with the Leafs as he battled injuries and tried to balance physicality and offence. Growing up in the Toronto area, Clarkson has a couple of specific memories about his idol. "I think it had to do with either going down the wing with a big shot and scoring, or a fight," he said. "I love that style of play or sticking up for a teammate. Those are the kinds of things that I enjoyed watching when I was young." So its no surprise that Clarkson, when he grew into his six-foot-one, 200-pound frame, tried to do the same at the NHL level. Clark didnt even mind the "Wendel Clark-son" nickname. "Its all good," Clark said. "Any time you can bring energy to the team, its not just about scoring and everything. It takes all types of players, so when you can bring different personalities in and lead-by-example guys and bring energy to the building, thats the fun part." The Clark-Clarkson comparisons will only go so far, though. Clarkson hasnt decided what jersey number hell wear next season, but he ruled out No. 17. "Couldnt do that. I couldnt live up to what he had done," he said. "To me, it was a childhood thing. But no, thats not in the equation." ' ' '
