I figured it would be fun to get a little discussion started around players that are very similar to see how each GM evaluates talent. The idea is put a group of similar players at a position, roughly the same age and see how GM's evaluate them. I am continuing this series by looking at OLB's.

Merriman has three years left on his deal @ 0.0m per year. Yeah that's a pretty good deal.
