I touched on this in another thread but Eric Berry averages just under 3 INTs a season while Earl Thomas averages just under 4. There's not a huge difference between the two as far as forcing turnovers goes..

I'd be willing to bet Thomas capped the market off at $10 a year for safeties. I wouldn't expect Berry to get a dime more than that.
