But either way it's a gamble and definitely a bet on himself.
What if his linemates stink it up? What if he gets injured?
What if he stinks it up? He hasn't been very good for about a year now (for whatever reason that was/is).
Anyway I see why he did it, but it's a gamble as the top UFA that was available for this year.
