Hill is a really nice backup. No complaints there.

I don't love Backus but he always plays I guess. 10 million for him. meh

This just solidifies my preference to look at those 4 defensive players I mentioned as draft targets in my other post since there won't be any great OL choices at that spot and we can now afford to not have to take a weak value there just to draft an OL.

There are now reports that the Backus deal is worth less than $6 million total. Can anyone confirm this?
