I think this is all reasonable, but again: did you think they were too much when we signed them?
I do agree that they have been "worth it" now that we know they end up with at least one Super Bowl victory.
But at the time, I quoted the adage that I "love the player, hate the contract" with all three guys.
I can't hold you to this because I don't know you, but be honest. Did you think those three contracts were too much when we signed them?
I think that contract is absolutely paying retail for Samuels, but I'm telling you guys, he fits like a glove for what we like to do offensively. His numbers are going to shoot up and he's the guy that beats Richard Sherman to win the Super Bowl. He just needs a better offensive system to bring that out of him. It will prove to be worth it, I think.
