I believe the final two years of the McGahee contract are bogus(padded numbers to make the super-agent look good!) the contract has around 15 million in guaranteed money. I should have been more specific, I was basing my comments on that figure.
Not to mention the ridiculously high contract such a high draft pick would command.....it would probably be two to threee times bigger than the contract the Ravens gave to McGahee plus the draft picks it would cost--no thanks.
I agree with both points.
I don't think FA is the way to go on the defensive side of the ball....continue to draft heavily on defense and assemble a unit of young players who fit the system and allow them to develop into a consistent, cohesive unit.
