San-O Posted August 20, 2005 Posted August 20, 2005 Debate whether he was the right player to take, but you can't debate the price. He was slotted based on the players before and after him. He's making a ton of money based on where he was taken. 413131[/snapback] I understand the slotting concept. He is overpaid as a right tackle. TD wanted a RT with the fourth overall pick, and now we got one. Bad move.
Tipster19 Posted August 20, 2005 Posted August 20, 2005 I agree with Wiz. If TD and Clements can't come to reasonable terms, then slap the franchise tag on him. This would another year and opportunity to resolve this issue. My understanding is that the player gets paid what the top 5 players are at this position. What do you think that will be? I'll take a stab and say somewheres in the neighborhood of 9 million. I think that might be a better scenario than to overpay now or to lose him at the end of the year. opefully this will all be resolved BEFORE the beginning of the season.
