If paying that much for a safety impacts potential OL and/or DL signings, that's a potential concern.
I think they can pull off retaining Bates and still covering OL and DL though, but they may have to get creative and take some gambles on some B-tier guys.
I'd much rather gamble on a lower safety than gamble on a lower offensive lineman. They absolutely NEED to fix the OL. A safety would just be nice to have.
