Ramius Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 I don't believe I'm implying that. In your scenario they would fall into Group 1. They never became Free Agents and were extended before they became free agents. I think your point is technically their contract expired in Feb and they were signed in early March before Free Agency. I was putting those players into Group1. Then why are you freaking out about signing them now as opposed to next feb? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1B4IDie Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 (edited) Then why are you freaking out about signing them now as opposed to next feb? I'm not freaking out. People are freaking out when I say that There are very few higher priorities for Buddy Nix than extending Levitre Why my comment solicited the reactions it solicited is beyond me.

auburnbillsbacker Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 You usually get a discount signing a guy entering the final year of the deal. The player will often take a little less money because an injury or down season could be disaterous when they negoiate after the season ends. The Eagles have always done a great job of getting guys resigned early. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stony Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 Now that it's agreed these two guys need to be resigned, anybody have any numbers in mind? Personally I think we might be looking at Weddle type of money for Byrd which I'm fine with. I'd like to see a Stevie type deal. 5yrs 35mil No idea for Levitre. He's not getting Nicks, Grubbs, Mankins type of cash but he won't be cheap either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
