I'm w/you on that. I think it was smootsmack that said 6 yrs. 35 mil w/12 guaranteed is fair & realistic. I agree w/those #s, but I question whether either is truly worth it in relation to a draft pick.

I know that there's more certainty in production from a vet, but there's also the risk of Hackett not being healthy. I would almost rather go w/the hope of a draft pick & the low salary than signing a fa at this point.

Either way, I'll be happy in the offseason so long as we don't pay huge $ for anybody.
