Potentially in the wallet and we could always loose Will if he's chasing a Dwight Freeney payday....

Will Smith's Career Numbers

Tackles Misc Interceptions
SPLIT TOT SOLO AST SACK STF STFY FF BK INT YDS AVG LNG TD PD
2006 52 33 19 10.5 2 6 3 0 0 0 0.0 0 0 3

Take into account that Freeney has been in the league 6 years to Will Smith's 4 years and I think you can safely say that Freeney is a much better sack artist and turnover creator but maybe not as good against the run as Will is. Either way big money DE are paid to sack the QB in this league so I don't think Smith will get Freeney money or Peppers money, but he should be a top 10 paid DE in this league. It shouldn't be a problem to lock him up cap wise at all.
