That's a lot for a Center, but he is a damn good player.

If we keep Davenport on top of this I'm happy with it

I'm not sure 40 million guaranteed over 5 years is too much. Seems good to me with the way salary is going up.

I think it's a damn good contract as well. The only time McCoy wasn't playing well was last year while playing hurt. He ended up getting healthy & looked great by the end of the year.

I think he's easily worth this contract.

Absolutely. I believe it makes him the fourth highest paid center. But considering his age and performance since entering the league the value is great. The three ahead of him are Jason Kelce, Frank Ragnow, and Ryan Jensen.

Notice how Erik Mccoy didn’t pout like a baby, try to sour the locker room, force a trade due to his toxicity and he was ultimately rewarded.

That’s a true Saint to root for right there.

If they signed marcus williams they couldn't have signed mccoy.

According to your logic.

I get what you are saying but they weren't 4 mil apart on a contract.

That's between and 20 and 25 mil difference.
