Overpaid for? Maybe. We should still have something like 20 million in cap room, so excuse me if I'm not upset if the FO isn't pinching pennies.

It sounds like it's AA's deal. Trust me, Lewis didn't get benched because Andry Reid wanted to make him a patsy. Lewis got benched because he isn't any good. Trust us, we've watched him for years.
As for the 9ers using their cap space, I definately think they're smart to use their cap space. These contracts won't kill their cap, but they're still way too pricey.
