I was ok with that one. Law wanted astronomical money when he was (1) coming off a very serious season ending injury, and (2) beginning his decline due to age. I should add that he never got the money from anybody that he was asking from the Pats. The Jets signed him to a one year deal that ended up being less than the Pats would have given him after everything shook out. It's the exact opposite of Samuel's situation -- young and hitting his prime. Similar to Branch except BB just doesn't value WR like other positions.
