If Agholor got 13, Samuel should get 15. :D
So was Mike Wallace before we signed him...

Perhaps, but I think the consensus is that pats jumped the gun and overpaid but we'll see. I think Samuel comes in around 10 and Golladay around 20.
Wrong side of 30 and declining...

I'm loving this...
Clearly, we have made offers... and now it looks as if we aren't moving off from them.
This is what we think you are worth to us, if you want to play for this amount, then come on down and sign...
SUCH a change from past regimes.

I said it when it happened.
Couldn't see the Pats "setting the market" with Agholor.
I don't think Golladay gets near 20, Samuel might get near 10.

Yeah, but I'm not signing Hilton as a #1 first off and I'm not signing Hilton for Mike Wallace dollars.So was Mike Wallace before we signed him...

The setting the market narrative is an agent's game. Their job is to say, X got this, so Y deserves this... A smart GM says, Team A was stupid to pay X this much (Tunsil), we think Y is worth this, let us know if you can't get more...
F*cking Wallace, hands made of ice only to be rivaled by Grimes.So was Mike Wallace before we signed him...
Still had a very similar year to Parker, and he was #1 option on the Colts, Fins wouldnt bring him in for that role and he'd be a nice vet presence on such a young offense. All this implying he'd be coming in for 10M per or less....

We saw how Grier's icy posture worked last year in the draft as the teams above us tried to fool him into moving up for Tua... he never blinked, and we saved a lot of capital to use in other places.
We are seeing it again, during this FA negotiation season as he sticks to his valuations... and doesn't overpay for players that we could use.
If you want to fault him for which players he drafted, or which players that he chose... fine, but don't fault his negotiating skills or his poker playing, because he is quickly proving to be one of the best in that area.
