I'm gonna be honest, these contracts are causing my interest in the sport to diminish. The contracts keep increasing exponentially and so do the ticket prices, merchandise, concessions, etc. while the typical fan is falling behind vs. inflation. I'm a football junkie but at some point I'm going to force myself to to lose interest in the billionaire play things. I'm getting pretty fuging close. Hell, I'll just watch local HS football to get my fix because college football is going down the same path.

I mean I get it but it's professional sports and inflation isn't the NFL's fault.

Also safety. One have 1 on the roster 

True, but one corner is a nickle and the other stays hurt.  You really need four strong CBs to have a solid corner corps. Two starting safeties with one decent reserve is standard.  I bet we sign at least one of the 5 safeties back we let walk when they realize there isn't a strong market for them.  Safeties are the 'RBs' of the defense.  Smart on us to let them ALL test the waters and not jump the gun on a new deal.  Again, we will end up re-signing one or two of these guys later in FA.

He’s never been able to crack the starting lineup there over guys picked way later and with less physical gifts. Maybe he’s great and doesn’t fit the system but McDermott and co churn out pro bowl corners and he never measured up to his draft position
