I like Metellus, but that is a lot of money for a hybrid player who does not actually play safety. Also, thought Murphy was a big overpay. In my opinion, the one who deserved to get paid most out of the 3 was Bynum. Thought he was more valuable on many levels.
Thus ends the shortest ankle injury in recorded history :D
Soo... now something like $70 million over the cap next year?

Yep. But such is the way it goes in the NFL. Fingers crossed this year's class of FAs pan out for the Vikings.
