check me on this... dorsey got basically a 22 million dollar signing bonus. 50 million total. a few years ago, seymour signed a 4 year 30 million dollar contract, and with signing bonuses being what they were a few years ago, he likely got about ten million dollars. so--I'm not sure of the math, but...

10+7=17 million dollars in signing bonus money for TWO 3-4 DEs (TWO OF THE BEST 3-4 DEs IN THE GAME), but we just gave 22 million to a guy who never played 3-4 in his life, and doens't really seem to fit.

are you ****ing reeruned?

Are you going to include their rookie contracts as well? They were both high 1st rounders. I'm not saying Dorsey is worth what he makes, but I'm not sure any top 5 pick is coming straight out of college. The Pats invested money and 1st rounders on that position, so I wouldn't be surprised if we do that same.
