People talk about his average salary without taking into consideration that he hit the open market where prices for all get inflated and the fact that the salary cap rises every year and will for the next few years

He did very well against Julio in one of the matchups.

Byron Maxwell was never on Norman level. Not even close.

For whatever reason, people don't understand Norman played a lot of zone in Carolina. There will be some growing pains going to a strictly man based system.

That was expected, dude was in a Cover 3 scheme for the majority of his Panther years. Now he gotta shift and play Man to Man coverage? That's a big transition that will take some time getting used to.

It's always puzzled me as to why players will sign with a team that does not fit their playing style. Demarco Murray, for example

Redskins run the perfect system for him. He won't be in man to man all the time. That was a huge reason why he went there. I don't see the big deal in this, Jackson burns everybody every once in awhile. Plus both receivers are in contract years. They have huge motivation to get that last big payday. Norman is going to coast until the regular season starts..

That's probably why he didn't go to one.

Cause they want the most guaranteed money. This isn't other leagues where 75 m = 75 m , it's basically a 2-36m deal with 3 club options

Elite ones.
Norman was certainly elite last season.

I don't think those 2 catches in a practice in July are worthy of an article being written, kinda silly.

And we (the Saints) were close to restructuring Drew to bring in this overrated clown.....TYPICAL. For us he would have been another Jason David (who was pretty good as a zone CB in Indy prior to his shite performance down here)
