Chargers still win on this deal. Dude is a top 3 CB in this league... Arguably THE BEST... And he signs a fringe Top 10 deal in terms of cash.

Very happy for him though, he deserves it and so much more. Still have his rookie photo and autograph hanging on my wall. Hopefully he keeps shutting down any WR he lines up against.

Very team friendly deal with only $12M/yr for the best corner in the league. Considering Sherman just signed for $13M/yr, although not much guaranteed, and Trumaine Johnson will probably sign for more than that, the Chargers just got a hell of a deal. Quite a few great pieces on that team but they never seem to be able to put it all together, maybe this year will finally be the year with the rest of the division looking fairly weak.

 

It sucks that the Packers let this guy walk but I think getting out of underneath Capers and into a different system really helped him develop into more than just a slot corner.
