Perhaps Q, but Nate Solder to the Giants. 4 years and up to $62M, making him the highest paid OLineman in NFL history. $35 million guaranteed.
He's not, of course, the best offensive lineman in the NFL. PFF had him ranked as the #18 tackle. Problem is that there are NO good tackle options in free agency so if your OLine is a mess, like the Giants' was last year, then you gotta pay big $$$ to fix it no matter what.
From a Pats perspective, losing the other guys we lost didn't hurt too bad. Losing Solder does. No obvious replacement starting quality left tackle on the team.
