Wouldn't Nate's contract be based on other CB's and not what a DT just got signed for?

Re: Kevin Williams - MONSTER CONTRACT

The thing that scares me about Nate is that I'm sure his agent will say "Look, this is the deal that Champ got..... But that was before the cap jumped the way it did over the past couple of years... So I need to be paid even higher than Champ was." I shuder to think the deals some guys are going to get this offseason.

Add that to Hutch's deal last year, and how much does Minny have tied up for two players?

Re: Kevin Williams - MONSTER CONTRACT

The consensus around Minnesota is that the other Williams, Pat Williams, deserved the contract. It's been said he's played like the monster.

I really hope there's a chance Pat gets cut in the offseason and comes to buffalo. Talk about an instant upgrade to the run defense.

Re: Kevin Williams - MONSTER CONTRACT

I'd rather spend big bucks on a DT than a CB. Tom Donahoe really screwed up our defense by letting Pat go. Everyone knows that the line is the foundation of the defense, NOT the secondary.
