Nothing but I have no doubts we have expressed interest in paying him fair market value over a long term contract, but he wants 1 year at a decent rate so he can get paid even more next offseason. He's projecting himself as a guy who will go to the highest bidder, regardless of how good they are, what they ask him to do, etc. How often does that work out for any NFL player?
