$7.8m of his $14.4m deal was signing bonus.
If you trade for him, you'd inherit a 3yr/~$5.9m contract.
I think I liked him last draft, so it's shocking to see him potentially gone that quickly. I would absolutely take a chance on him if the price is right, though. There's a reason why he was a 1st round talent, and perhaps a chance of scenery would help him.
As for a damn good reason... he was chosen by a head coach and general manager who aren't there anymore, and didn't perform well in 2021. Josh McDaniels will move on from guys who were previous coaches guys. He traded Brandon Marshall and Jay Cutler when he went to Denver and torpedoed the team.
