Philadelphia Eagles sign S Andre’ Sam

This signing grades out as a slight overpay for the Philadelphia Eagles — the team is getting approximately what they're paying for in on-field production. Andre''s on-field performance ranks in the bottom quartile among NFL Ss, grading him as an unproven at the position. His $1.1M average annual value ranks as bargain money for the S market. The production lines up closely with the price tag — unproven production at bargain money, which is essentially paying fair market value. Andre' is squarely in his prime, which adds to the deal's upside — the team should get multiple productive seasons out of this contract. The 2-year, $2.1M deal keeps the commitment short, giving the team financial flexibility to move on if performance drops.
