I wouldn't expect Heyward's to be. Amukamara's may be, but that would only happen if some team really expected him to stay healthy (i.e. the Texans deal with Allen).

It only ever takes 1 team to blow up a market but for others, the market just never comes together. That's all that explains the difference between Malik Jackson getting one of the largest deals in NFL history and Jaye Howard getting less money in 2 years than Jeff Allen will get in 1.

If a market never truly materializes for either player, you could see the same situation happen that happened with Sean Smith when we got him. We get a player that's 90% as capable as the big money signing but at 50% the cost.
