If I were Cam's agent it would be one of the contracts I point to as my floor. Cam is WAAAAAAAY better than the flag magnet.

Biggest ding on Cam's resume is that Taylor usually finishes a season.

No. Taylor's contract is a reminder as to why you don't overpay for relatively unproven commodities. They wanted him to play LT, threw a bunch of money at him, ultimately moved him to RT and he struggled further. 

Robinson has a few glaring issues. Number one being, his durability. He's played one full season in seven years since being in the NFL. He now has the PED mark on his career, which, that could also hurt teams looking to trust him in the short term or long term. 

His age is also working against him. He'll be 29 about mid season this year. When you get into PFF grading. He's a 65.4 on the year. With missed time and injuries. He would probably get a 2 to 3 year deal for less than $33M in my opinion. Depending on the team and situation. He's not great, he's not good. He's just mid level with a lot of durability concerns and character concerns.

Dumb question that popped up in my brain - if Cam gets a bunch of active roster bonus on his next deal, can the team claim that bonus money as NLTBE (not likely to be earned)? That wouldn't count toward the cap if they could make their case.
