A.J. Klein (3 year, $15 mill, $10M guaranteed)

5 million a year for a player who has been a back up his whole career? Not saying he won't start for us but sheesh, that's a lot for a part time player.

He's not coming here to be a part time player. He was also behind the best MLB in the NFL. When he did start, the Panthers didn't skip a beat.

I'm excited about this guy.

To be honest I don't know to much about the guy. I hope you're right. Maybe I'm living in the 90's but 5 million a year seems steep for a player with less than 15 starts.

Kinda, it depends on how the contract is structured. We paid 5/yr for Curtis Lofton several years ago.

10 million guaranteed over 4 years (2.5 per year) isn't exactly gonna break anyone in todays NFL.
