Also, Houston is a FAR BETTER OLB than Berry is a safety. Jmo |

Berry:
5.5 sacks 8 ints 3 forced fumbles For him to be worthy of something over 9-10 per year, he should have a season with those stats...not those being his career stats for a guy in his 5th year and being hurt. I love watching him play and it would suck to lose him, but it wouldn't be the end of the world if the money was used appropriately...not like giving it all to a backup QB, JAG TE and a punter...know what I'm saying |

I'd pay Thomas 10 a year without blinking while I'd be reluctant to offer Berry 8. This is a passing league and in this division, playmakers in the secondary are worth far more than box safeties. Just trying to be objective and leave the emotions out of it. |

It's silly to not count the year Stevie Johnson decided to **** Berry's knee up against him? Ok...

Thomas can do a lot of the same things that Berry does. But can Berry play CF as effectively as Thomas can?

Would you give Berry 10/yr? I wouldn't unless he is taking the ball away...sorry, but he doesn't do that enough. |

Seriously? You think Thomas could jump in the box and we wouldn't miss a beat? And no, Berry can't touch Thomas in the centerfield. No one in the league can. But that doesn't mean Berry wouldn't be worth the contract. He is the best SS in the league.

You act like Thomas averages 7 picks a year. It's literally one more per year than Berry

I'd give him 9/yr and not think twice about it. There's a ****ing reason he's 2nd behind Earl Thomas on damn near every list of Safeties. |

Yes. Thomas has phenomenal instincts, is a great tackler, and his athleticism is more than on par with Berry's.

He is a box safety that is bordering on injury prone. |
