We went well over a million to lure Grantham so money is available for the position. And in 2009 the Los Angeles Times cited an NFL source saying the league average for a DC was 850k. I doubt it has gone down in 10 years

I doubt they offered that low.

BUT, say we go after a coach who is at a bigtime college football program who makes say $2.05 million. We'd likely need to offer $2.5-3 million to get him to come here. AND his current team may just up that salary.

If you get a guy making under $800k, then $1.5 million might get him here...IF his current team doesn't match. They very well could match.
