I'm getting tired of this Murray is a good-guy crap.
First of all, the guy was salty as hell with the deal being offered and Dallas let him test his market value. ;Other teams clearly didn't think that much of him to even offer him the deal he thought he was worth.
Truth is, we don't know what money was being discussed and by whom. We heard our offer was around $6 million per, not sure about guarantees though, but while Oakland and Jacksonville may not have made formal offers, we don't know what money was discussed. His reluctance to sign with a poor team very easily could have been why no offer was made.
But in the end, he signed a deal worth more than $8 million per. Doubt Philly was outbidding themselves.
