Let's not forget that he still has 3 years with which to prove himself worthy of a big deal. Prior to that, we'll have WJ III, Billings, Hubbard, Lawson, and Vigil all with rookie deals expiring.
If Ross doesn't do much again this year I don't see the team exercising its 5th year option and we'll be looking for someone else for that role in the next draft, if one of the other young guys doesn't step up. I also don't see the team cutting him if he pays poorly either. They'll put him on the pine like they did Ogbuehi.
WJ III will command top dollar. Billings could be an economical re-sign, IMO.
Is Vigil worth keeping at a higher salary or are we better off drafting more LBers? I vote to draft young faster LBers.
