I'm torn on this. On one hand, he would be a great asset on the field for our team. On the other, we aren't exactly the type of environment that allows a moody player with attitude issues to succeed. Way too many times that has burnt us in the past.

Idk, I guess I would sign him, but only for a team friendly contract that allows us to easily cut ties once his attitude becomes a distraction for the team. Usually when we mix our favorite team and those kinds of players, the question isn't if he'll mess something up, but when. I definitely wouldn't give him 10 million a year, but I would give him somewhere between 5-7 mil per. But seeing as how he'll have his pick of suitors, and given the fact that his "pay me" attitude is one in a long list of reasons why the Eagles cut him, I doubt we will be in the running for whatever team he picks. Only way I see us signing him is if he takes a smaller deal just to stick it to the Eagles twice a year.
