As expected, Alex Mack opted out of his contract with the Browns today. That contract would have paid him 8 million a year for the next three years. 8 million in base salary this coming season and 6 million in base salary and 2 million in roster bonuses for the following two years. It is safe to believe that he will be looking for more than that yearly in his new deal and for a longer period.
Alex Mack is a very good player who would no doubt be a rather large upgrade over Swanson. My problem, he is 30 and the down side is coming sooner than later. That always makes me weary. Does he have another 5 to 6 years in him? That is likely the length of the contract he is going to want. Seems like a tough call.
