Yeah I am going to give Beane enough credit that I don't think it's for over $10M aav.

 

Hated the Sammy deal but in general he's been more shrewd than to pay that for a run plugger who is questionable enough that people are split on him..........he's no Snax.

 

It's not a disaster if they overpaid because they have absurd cap room next offseason but I don't even want to see that overpaying start for guys that aren't impact players.

I could see that and I'm most likely low balling it.  I do have some reservations of his verifiable more obvious production but maybe on tape he is worth that.  If he indeed is a constant force at the point of attack and he is able to help collapse the pocket then he'd be worth that.  If he is just a run plugger than the value I guessed I think would be more in line.

I'm not overly excited for the player but I'm going to give the guys in charge the benefit of doubt. I would have preferred a guy that can get upfield but if they think he can play well in the role they put him then I expect upgrades at LB and an improved front 7.

He was being discussed at $10M per by Carolina, that's the range he appears to have been looking for.  If it's closer to $7-$8 they got a good deal, but I'm betting its higher.

What's everyone's guess to how much he will get?

 

I'm guessing 5 year $38M with $20M guaranteed. 

 

I think this is a good guess.  League is de-valuing DT's who don't get sacks.  McDermott knows him better than anyone except his old team.  His old team has other DT's they value higher.  I don't think he's getting more than that.

I will say this............if you can't find a NT type later in the draft and develop him...........the way to get one is FA.

 

You don't want to have to buy your lead PassRusher/LT/WR/CB in FA nowadays..........THAT is why you draft BPA at THOSE positions early and not positions like RB/DT/LB(unless it's generational talent you are bypassing).

Probably a good sign that the agent hasn't leaked it yet.    Sammy's terms were out there in an instant because they were excellent.

 

Indeed...if he comes in at my number I'll be okay.  Anything over $10M AAV and I'll wonder what Beane was thinking.
