This position is also one of the worse with production dropping off after they hit pay dirt. We would have to be in a bad spot to even consider it. He has also had a goofy career. Not consistent at all, some of that is due to injury but not all of it.

Somebody is about to get ripped off. Probably the Browns.

More of a con than a rip off.

I don't see the FO offering anything crazy. He's probably gonna go for a big offer somewhere else. He'd be great to have but not at a monster contract.

Per that article, it makes it look fair if he's signed to a 9.5 million contract. There were some DTs that weren't nearly as disruptive and made 9 million.

What to do what to do?

I'm confused. What does this have to do with it? Are you talking about an extension with Brees to free up more cap space? That's a very real possibility and was also talked about by Miller and Kirwan.

Re: Nick Fairley expected to test Free Agency

We have too many needs on D to spend that kind of money. I would love to have him back though. He probably would've had a few more sacks if our DBs where healthy and held the coverage longer.
