Actually I don't think so, he's much older than people think. He signed a 4 year 10 mill deal with Atlanta which sounds like a draft deal...he's the same age as Mike Evans and Amari Cooper yet he never played with Cooper at Alabama. [Reply]

4/$110 million total. Damn - that's a stout deal right there.
Like I said yesterday, if the Dolphins really let him walk because they didn't want to pay him $21 million as was reported, they goofed that up biggly.
Well dolphins are currently 20 mil over the cap space so even if they wanted to they couldn’t [Reply]

The strength of their entire team - their DL - might be....might be...slightly better than ours. It wouldn't be if we had a healthy Omenihu.
Jones/Karlaftis vs. Crosby/Wilkins is pretty tight. Granted, they also have that top 10 DE they took last year who's name immediately escapes me, but he wasn't looking like much last season. [Reply]

But they offered him $19 million per those same sources. So if they could offer him $19, they could've gotten it to $21. That's just the nature of the beast. [Reply]
:-) Other guys in his class have to be kicking themselves right now. I'd easily take Williams, Lawrence, and Simmons over Wilkins today and he's making a fair bit more than all of them. [Reply]
