Having said all this, I'm not upset the re-upped him. I do wish they did a better job of getting their main guys re-upped. Admittedly, I picking nits.

Foster had 35 games and 27 starts in his career before he signed his deal. He definitely had no room to complain (and he didn't). The only thing that seemd like a 'delay' in getting new deal was that his initial deal as an UDFA was shorter than a normal rookie deal, so he got to RFA faster than guys are supposed to.
As for treating kubiak and the guys the same, I get what you are saying in general. I think it is harder for a coach sometimes since they can't get anyone to work for them if they are in their last year, but I don't think we were hiring anyways this year for any assistant spots.
I am neutral on this extension. It is not my money so I am fine with McNair rewarding Kubs as long as he is willing to eat the deal if it becomes necessary to part ways for some reason.
