Big Cat Country writes another glowing review of Tyson Alualu


Quote:1. What is this estimate based on, specifically? There is no "spin the DE claim". He's a defensive end. That is his primary position. He is not a defensive tackle and hasn't been since 2012. He plays defensive end.


 

3. How many other GMs were bidding on Ziggy Hood, though? Who was Caldwell out bidding? Now, you claim that Alualu's "market value" is $1.5M, which is based entirely on nothing, but you agree that Hood is overpaid at $4M and that's what a GM would have to pay for market value. Do you see the disconnect there?
 

He plays a run stuffing 'DE.'  He's a DT who plays on the end of a three DT, one pass rusher scheme. 


 

Estimate is based on contracts what I remember for fair starter and backup DT salaries over the last two years. Looking at Anchorman's numbers for good starting DTs, $1.5M is probably an overestimate.


 

I'm assuming that Caldwell knew what he was doing in his offer to Ziggy Hood. If he gave Ziggy a $4M contract while everyone else was offering (say) $1M, then we have a GM who throws money around like confetti.
