There seems to be plenty of talented players who are not considered NFL level tackles that we might get in the early mid rounds like Carl Nicks in the fourth. You jut have to have the scouting and our scouting department rocks!
There's a lot, yes a lot, of up front guranteed money for Peat and it's likely reward for playing injured with some painful limitations - and the contract also serves a msg for the troops...
On second review, some analysts including Underhill noted that nearly all the back-end of the contract is voidable, so there's relief & a contract that won't scare off potential trade suitors...
