Hmmm.....
Are you saying MG isn't above average? The numbers themselves disagree, but more tangibly, what he is able to commamd as a FA will probably disagree as well.
I'm not for overpaying any player, but most of the MG bashers are just bashing without regard to cost, or for that matter value.
Is he worth 7mil? 9? I mean unless you are willing to put some kind of number on it, its just ranting.
Obviously, he isn't the player Kelce is, and if that's what he is looking for, good luck.
On the other hand, if he wants top 10-12 money, that seems fair from strictly a cost/production standpoint.
What really matters is how Flo sees his value verses a cheaper player. If his production can be simulated by a guy on a rookie contract, the rest doesn't matter.
At this point, we have no idea what he/his agent are thinking, nor do we have any idea what offers, if any, have been made by the organization.
It seems like ppl are getting ahead of themselves, and frankly a bit overemotional, over a situation of which there is no actual information.
