This is true, but to give out a big contract to a guy like that for past production could cripple the team for a couple years financially.
If they like what they've seen out of Nelson and Gaines, even in practice, and they like the draft class, I'm not sure you keep him.
I still remember Gaines being named a year two breakout player by Louis Riddick on ESPN this August. I think they like him a lot, and most everyone comes back as good or better from ACL's these days. Hopefully it's the case here.
