Wharton is replacement level fill in for a future draft pick. He is not and will never be a long term solution. 

He played over 100 more snaps than Milton, had a similar pressure rating 70 pass rush on PFF the highest rated player in the SB.

 

I think your wrong but time will tell.

Plus, only $30.25 mil is actually guaranteed. Three years and 45 mil, with 9 mil more dependent upon meeting incentives. If it's an overpay, it's a fairly good bet, and a decent way to structure a contract to bring out the best in a player, especially one with a high motor. 

I mean, I know why some are being decidedly negative, but at some point one must realize that it's not really a doom and gloom situation, and that Wharton's contract is kinda worth the risk. It's relatively low to possibly mid risk, but with a high reward. If this high motor guy balls out, the contract will look good.

Not necessarily ignoring it. It's mainly due to lack of picks in the range where it matters. They need speed on the edge and they will have 1 pick in the top 50. There's not much you can do with that.

Very true, we’ve wasted so many picks and traded more away that we really are stuck a bit. They thought the Rams 2nd would replace our 2nd (last part of Young trade) and they ended up 18 picks apart. In looking at a mock, there were 8 DL and 4 DBs taken between our traded pick and the Rams pick we have.

We still need to crush 8, like pro bowl level player and hit on 57. If not, we’re just going to keep throwing money at FAs and hope.
