In space no one can hear Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 Ouch! Fri Feb 27, 2009 11:01 am EST OL Brown could command $8 million By Jason Cole A deal is in place for free-agent guard Jason Brown to get upwards of $8 million per year and become the highest paid interior offensive lineman in the NFL, according to a source. The flabbergasting part is that Brown was offered upwards of $8.5 million by one team and turned it down, a source close to Brown said. Agent Harold Lewis confirmed that Brown was in St. Louis visiting with the Rams on Friday morning as free agency hit its first day. Brown, who played the first four years of his career with Baltimore after being a fourth-round pick in 2005, is expected to surpass the $7 million threshold for an interior offensive lineman, which was set in 2007 by Minnesota guard Steve Hutchinson.

San Jose Bills Fan Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 When I originally posted this (and it must have been bastardized somehow) this is the salient point: The flabbergasting part is that Brown was offered upwards of $8.5 million by one team and turned it down, a source close to Brown said. Who was the team willing to give him history-making money? And why would he have no interest in signing with that team? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ddaryl Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 we just shipped out Dockery who was making 7 million a year for us Brown is more then worth it and would make our OL significantly better. Nope we're going after the carolina backup Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
