NFL Network's Michelle Beisner reported Tuesday that the Broncos have indeed made a hard push for Freeney and still are attempting to get a deal done. But a source with knowledge of the situation tells Beisner that Freeney wants things on his terms. Freeney is looking for an annual salary of $6 million. He's also in no rush to get a deal done. Beisner was told it wouldn't be surprising if a deal wasn't completed until training camp or after. Source: NFL.com
Um, with the low contracts that pass rushers are getting right now, there is no way freeney is worth $6 mill a year
i suppose if a team had a ton of cap space and a huge need, they could pay him $6 mill for this season...... but there is still no way he's actually worth that with the current value of pass rushers. someone would be overpaying out of desperation and that's exactly what freeney is probably counting on.
