Maybe he wants too fat of a contract...

It wouldn't hurt my feelings if we could get Hankins, I don't think it would do us any good to sign Fairley to a big contract.

I don't blame him... This could be his last significant contract. He seems to have conquered his demons and I think he's proven himself. If we lowball him then shame on us. He should be able to get between $6-9 million/year.

I don't think we will low ball him, but a bad team may overpay for him.

Absolutely. A team like the Browns has over $100 million in cap space and they're switching to a 4-3. You bet they'd probably love to give Fairley whatever he wants and pair him with Danny Shelton.
