Von Miller Free Agency Cowboys vs. Rams

The projections of a contract for free agent Von Miller, the future Hall-of-Fame-caliber pa s Matt Duchene Jersey -rusher, are all over the map, and the reason for that is understandable.He is still a star. But there is "age on him.'' And . But ...There will be other suitors. And the idea of Miller "coming home'' has been written about often in Dallas.Von MillerVon MillerSo one Rams-centric site suggests the defending champs from Los Angeles can help "run it back'' by signing Miller to "a four-year deal worth $30 million. ... that could be managed into a 2022 salary cap hit of $4.5 million.''At an APY of $7.5 million? That doesn't seem exorbitant ... as long as it is accepted that it means Miller will be on the books at age 36. a projected contract of two years and $17 million total. OK, that's $8.5 million APY. That's creeping up there a little bit Oscar Klefblom Jersey . ...And says Miller's "average annual salary'' value is at $10.6 million and that he should get a two-year deal for a commitment of $21.2 million.So ... $7.5 million? Or $8.5 million? Or $10.6 million? Which is the right answer?The Rams might have a feel for it. It's too early - with the free agency window opening in mid-March - for Dallas or other bidders to have answers.But Dallas knows what it wants to do with another pa s-rusher, Cowboys free agent Randy Gregory. "All our chips are in,'' one source tells CowboysSI.com. Nic Dowd Jersey "Scroll to ContinueAnd maybe that's the end of Dallas' involvement.

In three postseason games, the former Super Bowl MVP recorded two more sacks. His 115 career sacks make the eight-time Pro Bowler an all-timer, presently No. 22 on the NFL Erik Gustafsson Jersey history leaderboard, chasing the likes of Lawrence 132.5 (14th all-time) and DeMarcus Ware (ninth all-time) at 138.5.

Gregory, who the Cowboys are considering paying $15 million APY as he hits free agency, is 30 years old and was second on the team with six sacks.If Gregory - three years younger than Miller, it is worth noting - is worth $15 million, is Miller worth $10.6 mil? Or $8.5 mil? Or $7.5 mil?The Cowboys traditionally don't bother with exploring the higher-priced outsiders in free agency, preferring to pay their own.
