We still need a veteran DE that can give us 6-8 sacks this season.

Agreed, Budda Baker would help us some on the field. At what cost? ... He has decided he wanted a new deal 2 years into a 4 year contract or trade me to someone who will pay me.  Someone like that is just what we need in the locker room?  While I do not know his particular circumstances my first impression is not good.  A bad look for any team having this happen although it is standard practice for some athletes. This devalues any picks I would give up in exchange, maybe a 6th to take Arizona's issue off their hands. (no more than that) The next question is do we really want that here. There is no guarantee after we sign him to a new deal and pay him, 2 years in he demands the same of us and we have to eat 7+ million in dead cap etc. Big Pass.
