Universal blasting of this deal. Goodbye 2025, 2026, 2027.

Buzz on X is Staley may go after Asante Samuel Jr.

It seemed like a lot to pay. He'll need to start looking like a great 3-4 OLB for this to be worth it. Think Terrell Suggs.

I guess we have to keep a fair number of Ohio State guys around!

That team was stacked, so drafting some of them wouldn't be a bad idea. And I am NOT an Ohio State fan.

So, Saunders (Binky) and Shepherd are both staying on the D-line.

Nick Underhill

3h
Carl Granderson, Cesar Ruiz and Khalen Saunders restructured their contracts

Places him in the middle of the pack in terms of DE contracts.

At current production, that's a value.

If he improves incrementally (consider our new D Line coach) then we have an absolute steal.

Time will tell.

Here we go again... OVER paying for a good (but not great) player when we have so many other needs.

I HATE LOOMIS!

I hear you brother, seems absolutely insane but salaries are so inflated.

That amount per year isn’t that much for a DE nowadays.

The top DE contract right now is damn near 40M a year

!!

I would urge everyone to let the other moves play out to understand the scope of Kellen's vision.
