Yes.. yes it is. He would be the highest paid CB in the league by about $2m/yr. That's $2m/yr higher than Revis, Sherman, and Peterson. As a one year producer in a zone coverage surrounded by defensive talent, and is turning 29 this year.

Janoris Jenkins is a year younger, has a better history of production, and he got $12.5m/yr this offseason.
