I couldn't care less about some "mythical" first round lineman that would somehow save the day.

Dallas started their negotiations with Carr at 7 million per year, too.
That was reported in Dallas news multiple times and after Carr signed there, he said that the Jets (Revis and Carr would have been sick with Cro in the nickel role) and two other teams were in it, but that he never wanted to leave Dallas because that's where he wanted to play since he was a kid.
Those teams drove the price from 7/yr to over 10/yr.
Shortly after he signed, Jerry Jones said he "overpaid" for Carr before retracting and changing his wording to "paid market value".
I was in the group that wanted to sell the farm.
I was merely pointing out that that it was gonna take a lot more than you suggested.
