Well, this might be a stupid question but as a rookie who just got out of college, how the hell did he pay for a 2005 Range Rover. Unless his mother did like "Lebron James" mother and bought it for him, or his agent like in the movie "He got game" bought it for him.
But then again, what do I know, he may have his sources of income..Maybe Nike or those EAS commercials...I don't know!!!

We're not talking about a Geo Metro or a Toyota Corola here, we're talking about the most expensive SUV besides the Hummer(H1).
 
Usually the agents will provide credit lines for their clients until the deals get done.
 
These guys get loans from banks before the draft even happens depending on how high a pick you are projected to be. How do you think they pay for those sweet suits on draft day. Ronnie is in line for a big payday when he signs he contract so the Banks come in early and begin to get their share.
 
If I owned a lot, and the #2 pick in the draft asked to finance a car, I think I'd take the chance that he'd be able to afford the payments.
 
His agent hooked him up i bet..

He does tv ads and w/e else comes his way... I bet het gets a good payday on them
 
The guy is starting to sound like a Greedy *******!
 
You can buy anything without cash...it's called financing...I think RB can get a pretty good credit line with a projected 22 million dollar deal.

Exactly. :lol:

Plus, I'm sure he got a sweet deal on it. Celebrities get great prices on cars because the exposure is great for the company who sells them.
 
Yeah, Agents give retainers, other endorsement deals and future earnings from banks allow for him to buy just about anything.
 
funnyn how he goes from the fresh faced modest humble rookie, to the evil money grubbing greedy holdout, technically hes not even holding out. chill on him guys. none of what is going on has anything to do with ronnie brown, its a flawed system that isnt going to change anytime soon.
 
Yeah, when Ross Verba was drafted by Green Bay he held out for ever. Well before he signed I heard from his mother that he had just bought a new Cadillac Escalade. She said his agent told him to go ahead and buy some toys because the money will be there and that the longer they held out the more they will get its a chess match and that he had all the leverage. I just kept thinking that if he broke his leg he could be screwed. Agents are scum and the NFL needs to do something like the NBA in order to knock this crap off.

Brown will get his money and once he does most Dolphin fan will have forgotten how long a holdout he had. Being in Iowa didn't get to watch a lot of Auburn on TV but the games that were on he looked pretty good.
 
range rover put this out for sales LOL!

Ronnie we luv ya but you must perform to keep the LUV!

Get in camp pls, and 19 mil is more than enough!

What, you want him to drive an '85 Plymouth Savoy with the bumper hanging off?

This guy has numerous endorsement deals, has done a number of interviews, promotions and advertisements that would all have monetary gain. Also, you guys have talked about the credit lines. These have supplemented such projects as the financing of Pac-Man Jones' 90, 000 dollar bracelet before the draft even took place.
