OT Gosder Cherilus (5 yrs, 34 million, 10 guaranteed)

OLB Eric Walden (4 yrs, 17.5 million, 8.6 guaranteed)

CB Greg Toler (3 yrs, 15 million)

Your response to those are probably "Who?", "Who?" and "Who?".

Yeah the contract was horrible overall, but for half of that to be guaranteed. Yikes. His agent is really good.

So did Tim Ryan on Moving the Chains yesterday afternoon.

Specifically said "Huh?" when terms were stated...

They gave the Bushrod signing a Z- grade, they said the signing was so laughable it deserved a laughable grade. Everything they said was true. He will be exposed with a QB who has terrible pocket presence.

What u mean, they are popular guys, cherilus was very good for the lions this year, walden isnt he the guy who beat up his girlfriend who plays for the packers? And I like Toler a lot, he did a decent job for the cardinals.

You could argue that all 3 of these guys are not even starter worthy. Honestly.

The assessment isn't necessarily about whether they are that poor quality of player but that they were extremely overpaid.

You see a contract in there you like?

Cherilus is 4-5 million range, the other 2 guys are in the 2-3 million range.

Yet some folks here want to roast Loomis's nuggets for not jumping in and overpaying for bums on day 1 of free agency.

I kinda like the cherilus and toler signings (too much money, and toler is really an incognito with all his health problems, but still). but i can't imagine WHY they would give any buck to the worst 3-4 lb of the entire league in the last couple of years. Seriously.

Cherilus was a first round pick by the Lions actually...cant really comment on his play I guess he's been avg to above avg but not a homerun of a pick like they may have wanted when they picked him

Just even look at the dolphins. I am not sure if I will be paying that much for a receiver, specially considering the quarterback. Ellerbee is a great player, but not for that money. Same for Philip Wheeler. Those numbers are just nuts!

Also I don't think linebacker was the problem with the dolphins. We will see how it goes next season.
