Quote:Hard to pay that to a 31 year old who showed signs of slowing down last year. Taking a big chance that being used incorrectly was his only reason for less production. If he could give us 2 or 3 years of 8 or more sacks, Id say hes worth it. 

 

I agree it's a slight risk but one I'd be worth taking.  I would rather pay him that than pay what Vernon is rumored to be getting.  He's too good of an athlete and player to fall off the cliff that quick.  It was simply the wrong situation for him last year in Buffalo.  His attitude might be a problem in regards to not giving it 100% there last year but I would take that risk.  He had gotten better every year in Buffalo prior to last season.

Good news.  He's a good young pass rusher.  Great depth guy too.

 

Quote:I figured he'd get about 3 years/$30 million, so I'd be perfectly fine paying Mario that.

 

I figured he would get that or slightly more.  I would pay him 4 years at $10 million per with a front loaded deal that leaves no dead money after year 2 or 3.
