    If I knew that, then I wouldn't be here creating a poll for you to bash.

    Here's a suggestion. Perhaps you can think of your ideal cost and length, and go with that.

    the best we could do for JJ would be to offer him a 3 year, 13.8M extension (veteran extension can be for up to 4 years including any remaining years on the contract, starting at a max of 107.5% of current salary or Max, whichever is lower, and 7.5% annual raises). If he'd take that, I'd offer it tonight. But his cap hit is 7.6M, which means that unless there's some significant cap space added, we're not going to hang on to a huge cap hold. And I don't think his agent is holding out for a 4.6M annual deal.

    I don't see us offering a near max deal this summer so I think we will end up putting out a couple of mid-level type contracts to some quality guys in the 4.5 to 5 million per year range. We could get two or three guys with that kind of contract.

    parents choose whether or not to "circumcise" (cut) you

    Would've made more sense if he said Lorena Bobbitt.
