I want to say it was one of the DT's but Idk...
True that. At that time most people on this board didn't want him resigned, saying that his 9.5 sacks were "coverage sacks" so they don't count. AND he was asking too much... but yet, most people also thought that paying Lawson $13M+/ year was acceptable. Which is what Miami ended up paying him for his 1 year of service.
Lawson - 13M/year - 4 sacks in Miami
Phillips - 10M/year - 2 sacks in Arizona
Butler - 13M/ 2 years - 0 sacks, and he was horrible for us.
Yeah, it 100% would have been better to keep Phillips for that price.
I'll take 10M/year for his 9.5 "coverage sacks"
