I saw 17M with 5.5M guaranteed. Those numbers seem reasonable for Simon but guess Rac & Vrabel didn't think he was worth it.
I would have restructured or cut Cushing to retain Simon but maybe they don't want to keep either of them.

I love Simon, but you can't pay him that money to be your 4th edge rusher, and I don't think you can pay him that money with the plan that JJ/Mercilous/Clowney are getting hurt again.

Stinks that he went to Indy though.

It's good, really. Now we can exploit Simon's inability to cover backs out of the backfield just like Indy would do to us.

I never really thought Simon was anything more than just a guy.

Bouye we'll miss; Simon, I doubt it.

34 OLBs cannot cover backs out of the backfield. Nor should they be asked to for longer than 1-2 seconds. That has nothing to with Simon.

Also, the Colts did little in the passing game against us in general last year, and even less with their RBs. What little they did get to their RBs had nothing to do with Simon. So I have no idea where this comment comes from.
