Watt is not worth 15.5 Million per year at this stage of his career. You can get similar production from Hyder for half of that price. And he is 2 years younger. And without the health concerns. Watt only had 5 sacks last season in 16 games. We all got on Armstead's case for only getting 3.5 sacks.
All that is true but Watt had a lot more impact on the game than his sacks would suggest. Given his injury history he is not worth that. If he gets injured that would be great because the Cardinals just lost Patrick Peterson as well as Riddick and hopefully they have to pay Chandler Jones a lot more. Their secondary is garbage as well as their OL. They will probably lose they're running back as well because of this signing
