The Patriots offer Jamar a contract of 4yrs @ 0.85m
A DB who was benched by Miami but then traded to Cleveland, no guarantee he starts or even keeps a roster spot.

Not a bad bid, but missing an important fact or two...
Taylor was drafted in the 2nd round and was the #11 Corner in the league through 12 games (which is our league season) before being traded. Past performance, rather than perceived uncertain future should be the guiding factor (4 years of uncertainty?)
At 8+ ppg that places him in the range of a minimum of $1.1 Mil and perhaps a maximum of $1.3 Mil.
Veto (0-1)

At 8+ ppg that places him in the range of a minimum of $1.1 Mil and perhaps a maximum of $1.3 Mil. Veto (0-1) I'm seeing that he was the 91st DB and 42nd CB after 12 weeks. Not sure where you're seeing that he was the #11 corner through 12 games. Sure for production as low as that as well as unpredictability from switching teams after being benched for poor play leads to the offer being a fair one. |

Agreed...my mistake at #11 - not sure why it showed that way originally...
Notwithstanding, Robert Alford (ATL) was just re-signed at $1.1 Mil, which was what I would deem a fair offer...similar production. 1st tier CB's are way upwards in most instances...not bad production for a second tier CB (ranked 33-64).
Ex; Sensabaugh ($1.26 Mil) and Casey Heyward ($1.3 Mil)...Brown and Munnerlyn fall in the same category. Perhaps if the offer was 2 years, rather than 4, it would be more fitting...

I agree with the Bengals that the original offer should probably have been over a million based on past performance. That being said productive players being moved to another team early in their careers after playing well is not a good sign and I don't see Taylor becoming more than a slot cb for the Browns (irl). $850 k vs $1 m isn't that great a difference even if it is for 4 years. Chalk this up to a hometown discount, I'm okay with it.
Approve (1-0).

Veto (1-2) Either over $1.00M or a shorter contract.

The Patriots have decided to let Jamar play out his tender as they believe a contract over 1m is crazy for a CB who ranked as poor as Jamar did last year and was a healthy scratch for the back end of last season.
