No dude, Tamba got $12 million a year. Clay Mathews contract is $13.2 million. He is the highest paid OLB. Tamba's five years $60 million vs. Houston's hypothetical six years $97 million is a big difference. It is a big difference. $14-15 million would make him the highest paid OLB by a lot. If he really wants $16 million a year I think they'll say adios. That's Watt and Suh territory. That's d-line pay and not LB pay. Offering $14-15 million is very generous.
No point in arguing. From now on I will just keep my opinions in a black and white format until I figure out how people roll here. I should have just said Houston will not get a contract for a number of reasons. People must not like to hear reality until after the fact.
