Good. Would have done the same. Dont think anyone will bite.

Watch the Eagles sign him.

He wouldnt crack the Backup Rotation on that D-Line.

 

[Stash]

I thought originally it had to be a first, but the more I've seen, I can see why it's a second rounder.

 

[Stash]

They can't as of now. No second round pick.

They'll do it just for the LOLs, similarly to DeMarco Murray.

Hahah nice!

And now the waiting game begins. With the money handed out so far this FA period wouldn't shock me to see a team throw him a stupid number.

 

[Aven8]

Could easily see Indy or NE doing this without hesitation. Maybe even KC.

Absolutely. This was not a move without risk.

 

[MonsterD]

NO ONE IS TRADING A 2nd ROUND PICK FOR HIM!

 

[CATCH17]

He's worth more then a 2 and we will be a worse defense if he leaves.

Yep and then the Brain Trust will say can't afford to match that offer

They tendered him hoping someone will. There is no other reason, unless they are even more cheap and inept than they already appear.

 

[BrAinPaiNt]

You have to wonder if they actually hope someone bites so they can get the 2nd round pick. Part of me thinks they actually do hope that as it would fall in line with their build through the draft philosophy.

I guess we will see if the NFL agrees with you

 

[LittleD]

We're taking a calculated risk only placing a 2nd round tender on him. I guess they would be fine
either way with him staying at the lower price or having another 2nd round pick to draft. If they really
wanted him for several years they would have extended him some years like Price.

 

[Sandyf]

A 2nd round was the good call and even if someone gives him a contract we have the right to match if we want to keep him.

I could see New England or Tennessee taking a run for a late second.
