Wallace did not.. the question becomes at what price will he come down to for a team to consider him.  I don;t see him taking 6 million a year.. and no way the Bengals are going to go after him for 6 million a year.... 

I'd be shocked if Wallace made $6 million per. The big paydays to Marvin Jones and Sanu were in part thanks to their age and potential. Wallace is 30 years old coming off a disappointing season in Minny. His needle is pointing in the opposite direction. It doesn't mean that he's washed up, it just means that his days of big paydays are probably over. He's more likely to get a "prove it" type of deal.

I agree that he was overpaid by Minny and Miami. He was also stretched thin as a #1 WR. That said, his being overpaid has nothing to do with us, and we're not looking at him as a #1 option.
