The writers acted as GMs and made their offers. Todd Archer just snagged us Von Miller.
Cowboys!

Von Miller, OLB
2021 team: Rams/Broncos | Free-agent rank: 3
Cowboys' offer: Two years, $30 million ($30M guaranteed and three void years attached from an original five-year, $90M offer) ... We're tugging on Miller's heartstrings to return to home in the twilight of his career and pair with Micah Parsons. You can be the leader on our defense. -- Todd Archer
Rams' offer: Two years, $37 million ($20M guaranteed, including $15M fully guaranteed in 2022 and $1M incentives each year for winning the Super Bowl) ... Let's go win two more. -- Adam Teicher
Seahawks' offer: Two years, $24 million ($15M guaranteed, plus $1M in per-game roster bonuses each season and $1.5M incentives each season tied to playing time, sacks and the Pro Bowl) ... We know this isn't as big of an offer as you may get from other teams, but the guarantees are strong, and it's an opportunity to remain on the West Coast -- not too far from your home and young son in Denver. -- Brady Henderson

The decision: Miller picks the Cowboys
The Dallas deal was an eye-catcher at first glance since it's five years and $90 million on paper, but it's really a two-year, $30 million deal with those void years. It's better than what Seattle's offering, especially with that silly structure the Seahawks always insist on. So do I take more money but less guarantee from the team I just won the Super Bowl with? Or do I try to win it with a third team? Man, L.A. was fun, but there's just something about that star on the helmet. -- Dan Graziano
How he fits: With uncertain futures of Randy Gregory, who is set to be a free agent, and DeMarcus Lawrence, who has refused a pay cut, Miller can be the perfect pass-rushing complement to Micah Parsons and serve as a mentor to the burgeoning star, similar to the way DeMarcus Ware was for Miller in Denver. This would be out of the Cowboys' recent character in free agency, where they have been low-money shoppers, but Miller remains a top-end pass-rusher and would thrive in Dan Quinn's scheme. -- Todd Archer
