Now that we have freed up some money by trading Gandy, can we please show LaVar Arrington the money?

Are we still on this? Not only does he not want to come here, but he's asking for more money than the teams he actually wants to go to are willing to pay. He's asking for Julian Peterson money (7 years, 54 mil). It's just too much money, and he's not coming down.

Ha oh really? He's already asking for $9 mil from teams he WANTS to go to. That means we'd prolly have to offer him in the neighborhood of $11 to 12 mil a year for him to consider us. Those are ridiculous numbers. No way should he be making as more than our QB who we just broke the bank on. $12 mil a year...that's not practical, even for an NFL franchise.
