I fully believe Veach has a number that he won't go a penny over. That number allows us to possibly resign key other players. He will finagle the contract around a bit but won't go over. I don't know but my guess is 30 million a year is probably over the max for his age. We will see but I won't rip Jones for trying and a lot of teams would jump to pay a player of his caliber that much.
As for long snapper, I remember Hank Stram had Bobby Bell as his long snapper. Bobby was an important cog on that defense. That's the value Stram put into special teams.
I also wonder if we will extend Creed. It would be very difficult if he chases the money. In my heart, he is the type of player who if he loves it here takes a discount. But that's just my feeling that could be completely wrong.
