I am honestly glad that we did not sign him to terms like that.
We are not one year away from being competitive. We are more like 2 or 3 years away from having a good defense.
I would rather sign "NFL average" guys now like Woods, Hunt and Mingo for modest contracts while biding my time to nab good players (Sheard, Simon) and difference makers (1-15 pass rusher?) in the draft and free agency.
In 2 or 3 years when we are ready to compete? Yeah, that is the time to splurge on big contracts.
But now? Keep filling the roster with "competition" so that we can at least get to the middle of the pack defense.
Chees,
