Like I said in the free agency thread... This is a great deal! People thought he might get $10 million/year and we kept him for between $7-8 million. I'm thrilled with it!

There were rumors he'd be over 10/yr.

To have the 3rd best F/A DT at 6 or 7 million is great.

I don't care what other people would have paid for him. I hope it works out, but if he ****s the bed suddenly it is going to be another move in a long line of bad ones. Like I said hope it pans out.

7.5m a year for a top pass rushing DT is a good deal. Nick Fairley has earned a solid contract. This wasn't a bad move at all.

It's not like bringing in an unknown. He has proven his worth as a Saint. He wants to be here. There is no indication that it could ever turn into a bad deal.
