It's easy, and only takes a few moments.But that doesn't mean his agent didn't project he would get a lot more in FA than they were offering.It's not so much that they are oblivious to the cap, but that they could get this done a year earlier, and you take the unknown out of it. You can get hurt or have a bad year for instance.
Posters should simmer down with this "injury prone" nonsense. If Hightower is re-signed, then it is a major addition to a defense that with further fortifications to the front seven in FA/Draft may take another step forward from the great season they had in 2016.
....or, he could take days negotiating with other teams.
Other teams don't sign guys they had thought they would and have extra money to spend too.I don't think this will happen mainly because most teams would have someone else in mind in case they can't get a player they are targeting in FA and don't want to risk that player being gone.
If Hightower doesn't resign with the Pats at around the start of FA I think we will be out of the race for him and onto plan B.
To those people, I'd just say try to find a top-tier LB (real LB, not an edge rusher in a two point stance) that isn't injury-prone by the same standard. Kuechly has missed 9 games in the last 2 years, and appears to have developed the kind of chronic concussion problems that can derail and prematurely end a career.

Sorry I forgot there are no such things as exceptions.And yet you see a historic correlation of contract size and how soon after FA opens that contract is signed. The rates drop off almost like a power law function.

Well, I like that, but haven't they been trying to strike a deal since last spring?..... hoping they can consummate it this time....
I'll think of you next time I see one of TMZ's breaking updates on the latest Kardashian baby.Any news is...well...news

That's nuts. Jones is not worth that cash.Chandler jones got 17 mill a year with 50 mill guaranteed. I don't think Hightower is taking 12-13 and 30.
