His case has no legs to stand on at this point. He needs to drop the lawsuit 

The contract likely strengthens his case against the league. The guy was good enough to earn himself a 3 year deal worth 22 mil yet couldn't get signed at all until an injury opened up a spot for him?

The niners offered him a one year deal that he rejected.

On a one year peanuts deal to be a backup. A guy that was plenty capable of starting in this league, and the only offer he could get was a vet min backup deal. 

It's not like he suddenly wasn't any good and then became good again.

Carolina gave up 20 points per game in 3 games before they signed him.

  • They gave up 25.7 over the 12 real games he played (Saints rested in week 17)
    • 23.2 ppg in 11 if you want to throw out the Steelers rout as an aberration

He was a loud-mouth about drug testing and he was fined 2 or 3 times for cheap shots.

Sounds like a 3 year 21 million dollar deal is in order.

 

We all thought the Coleman deal in New Orleans was crazy at 3 years 16.

I guess this money is paid with the hope that they see 2013 Eric Reid.

  • That guy has not been seen in 5 years.

I'm not going to drag politics into this, a football discussion.. but he played pretty well for us and as mentioned, he will not be just an over the top safety.

This signing is front loaded so we can basically can him after 19 and be no worse cap wise. 

3 years for 22 mil is reasonable and is starting safety money.

The defence as a whole last year was a **** show because we had a rookie playcaller with rookie assistants under him. Luke #59 even looked pedestrian most of the season until Ron took over the defence. Then, it was night and day.
