I think Rolle is only a year or so older than Smoot. I agree with what was said about this being a combination of Smoot asking for way more than his actual worth(a $14 million signing bonus!!!) and Greg Williams having worked with Rolle for 3 years and thinking he's a better fit in his system than Smoot.
Sure I'd rather just keep Smoot, but he and his are way overestimating his worth even though someone will probably sadly still pay him what he's looking for, but I'd rather it be another team badly overpaying for once rather than us. I like many others love Smoot's personality, especially the comments he's made about rival teams, but as much as I like Smoot I can't put him in the top 5 category like he's trying to do. he just doesn't deserve that kind of money.
