Make your take
In context
Pelisserodeal you get it done and you lock in the price but then that kicked up the number for Denzel Ward who looked like he was worth every penny last night kicked up the number for Devin Witherspoon and in turn for Christian Gonzalez Joey Porter Jr. is not viewed as on the same level as like a Gonzalez or Witherspoon but he is a very good starting corner.
PelisseroAnd again, free agent dollars are different than extension dollars. When you've got 32 bidders instead of one or up to 32 bidders, it moves. And they're acutely aware of that. I mean, his agent, David Muligeta, who also happens to be George Pickens' agent, who also happens to be Micah Parsons' agent, who also happens to be Jalen Ramsey's agent.
PelisseroAnd several of those guys had a back injury at one point before ultimately getting traded.
Pelisserohe's very experienced he's done a lot of those top db deals like he'll have a plan in place they're they're not gonna they have no reason to take less than 30 million dollars a year for joey porter jr we can all sit here and argue well trent mcduffie's a better player yeah but the market's already moved since the mcduffie contract which moved the market uh she'll it just it it's sort of it all fits together because you're all you're
Pelisseroconstantly projecting out from the player side like how am i going to get the most money now well the steelers are offering a contract it wasn't in that 30 plus bucket. All right, we're going to play it out somewhere. He wanted to go elsewhere. He ends up in Dallas and then we'll see.
PelisseroYou know, if it's an extra 10 % on the free agent market, this may be all worth it.
GilTo his credit, he said he wants to be a cowboy for life. It means nothing, but he said it. So maybe that will lead to something. Hey, Shield, you mentioned the sweep. That's Tom's newsletter. Tom, is that coming out Saturday? What are we looking at the sweep this week?
