1. There aren't a lot of good tackles in the league right now, so a lot of them are getting overpaid in a big way.
2. The college game is so pass-oriented now, that there aren't that many ready to come out and be NFL run blockers.
3. Bengals.
Honestly the part that scares me the most is the money he's getting and what it means for re-signing Dennard. No Dennard means that the likelihood of a first round CB goes up significantly. Screw that garbage.
Also, screw Texas A&M and all of it's fish-eating friends. Good ol' Jimbo can suck a fart straight out of my ass for pimping this loser to Turner based on how he played for him back in the golden days of Florida State. "Well ol' Jimbo said he wuz a good player back at Flawda State!" I hope the Aggies lose every game in embarrassing fashion and then get wrapped up in a really humiliating prostitiution/beastiality scandal that causes them to be given the death penalty.
Here is the problem. The lack of quality OL has been evident for many years now in the NFL and the result is you are forced to overpay for the good ones. We whiffed 100% on Ced and Fisher SO the team should have then stepped up and 'overpaid' for Whit and Zietler. Zeit at $10M is FAR more value than Hart at $7M. This is where this team fails time and time again. So short sighted. They overpay for Hart and the likes of Dre and Rey M and Vinnie Rey but then try and undercut Whit and Zeitler who actually were pro Bowl players. This team has little ability to gauge a players actual market value.
