I'd say it's debatable that he's $20MM good.

I don't see any way to get to $25 million.

Is he presently a top 10 interior lineman? It's tighter than you might think, IMO.

He's a hell of a lot closer to Hargrave than he is Williams at this point, IMO. And he'll be the same age Hargrave was when he signed for 4/$84 million (which is realistically 2/$41 million).

And honestly, I still don't think I'd give him Hargrave's deal. It's just time to move on. Change your approach to focus on depth across the line and pass rush from your edges. Omenihu can provide some 3rd down interior pressure if he kicks inside.
