That's an excellent question. All of the vague formulas refer to the FAs "signing contracts," not how they perform. But I really don't know -- a big-$$ signing cut in camp is such a rare event that I can't think of comparables.

I believe that Green would be removed from the equation, but Miguel or AdamJT would be better people to comment

I've read that trhe players' contract is by far the most important determinant as to award of compensatory selections, but that performance and post-season awards also factor in.

Does that performance have to be for the team who signed him? What if he registers 6-8 sacks for the team he LEFT??? (i'm joking, of course)

Armchair Quarterback

Yep, zero cap hit this year, and zero return on your $7 million dollar investment. Also zero production from the player this year. Whatever way you want to spin it, this is pretty solid evidence that he is done. I thought his play in 2009 was already evidence of that. I wouldn't want to cut any of the DL they have now for as Deus put it "a pass rushing specialist who can't rush the passer" and I hope they pass on him.

Christopher Price has confirmed that Patriots have "genuine interest" in Jarvis Green.

Armchair Quarterback

Good for them, for reasons I already stated, I hope they pass on him.

All due respect Armchair Quarterback, but if Bill Belichick thinks he may have something left, then I will try and stay open minded.

Armchair Quarterback

Fair enough, just giving my opinion.

DaBruinz

I think that Green returning would be a good thing.

West Philly Patriot

well if reports are true that burgess is just about history than jarvis green may very well get a look at that DE slot as well as in some sub packages
