And not by simply sitting on it. Take a look at some of these contracts, and then consider all the teams except for the Raiders had to give up a draft pick or two. Of course Tommy Kelley is the least of the three players.
-Tommy Kelly--Oak-- 7yrs, 50.5 mil, 18 guaranteed
-Corey Williams--Cle--38 mil, 16.3 guaranteed, 23 over the first three years.
-Kris Jenkins--NYJ- 5 years, 35 mil, 20 guaranteed
Keep your eyes on where Shaun Rogers goes....he is the next Very Very large piece to move.
Marcus Stoud may be moving too. He is also....Very large. END OF POST
If the Jets sign Jenkins and Faneca, while their fans will no doubt be elated, I will be expecting them to be mediocre at best for at least five more years. Building your team from your lines is great, building it from the draft with young players is better. I like the Hawks approach so far. I had a tough time with Kerney last year and he was a sack machine, 18 million guaranteed for Corey Williams, yikes. Can you imagine what Rocky would be worth if he were a free agent.
ReplyDeleteHe will be next year. Last time he didn't get nearly as much interest as was expected. Now he is 3 years older.
