Message: <blockquote data-quote="HardRightEdge" data-source="post: 822134">We're not qute saying the same thing.  Edge players were already expensive and getting more so.  But this Graham deal pushes it futher than reasonable expectations.We have Demovsky reporting that agents are saying Gutekunst is prioritizing edge rushers in free agency.  Last season it was reportedly the Mack derby (though I doubt that got very far), a CB (Fuller) and WRs (Robinson, Watkins) and landed none of them, presumably on price, pivoting instead to Graham.The way things are going, I don't think there's enough projection in second contract candidates to justify the kind of money they may command.  Even if that report is true (which is dubious with those kinds of things), I'm not going to be shocked if Gutekunst pivots again to other needs, safety, Breeland, O-Line, D-Line and even a Matthews deal depending on price.Upon further evaluation, Rashan Gary at #12 would be a plausible alternative if he lasts that long.</blockquote>
