No, he isn't. But $21M??? Maybe...Is he really worth 25 million plus per year?
Miller is the outlier there because his deal is now "old" but halfway between Flowers and the top 2 is about right, no? Remember one of the things about D Law is he plays the run very well also. Some guys will get more sacks, but he is a complete, every down player.
Wow, is Lane Johnson the biggest Asshole in the B+NFL now or what??? He's just as infatuated with the Cowboys as many Eagles Fans seem to be.

If he didn't juice so much he probably gives up more sacks.Hey, Lawrence's lack of sacks against Johnson doesn't make him a bad player. Lane's just a little salty that these DEs he owns make more than he does. But if he didn't juice so damn much, he might make more.
LOL....Johnson be like...look at meIf he didn't juice so much he probably gives up more sacks.

Well one is a DT & one is a Edge rusher. Two different positions. Different demands on price per position.Fletcher Cox's contract is looking like a bargain now. Just a couple of years ago, people were like, "$100 million contract for Fletcher Cox?" Now he is not even in the top 5.
I'm kinda with you there @Schmoopy1000 , a guy like Cox or Donald is extremely rare and if you find one like that, I think you have to do what it takes to keep them. They make all the guys on the edge look even better. It also seems that colleges are grooming a lot of edge rushers these days because that is the hot position coming into the league. It has really become everything for teams after a franchise QB. The game has become about getting to the QB quickly and getting him off his spot because with offenses these days, a QB with time will tear the defense apart.Well one is a DT & one is a Edge rusher.

But for what it is worth. I would rather have started with a game changing top DT & go find an edge rusher than the other way around. Finding an edge rusher out of college seems easier than an dominating DT.
My philosophy has always been start from the inside out.
