Guy was lights out his last years in Buf.I'm actually surprised Buf did'nt sign him at that price,he was a fan favorite there.

I think he had been moving down on the depth chart over the last few years, mainly becuase of injuries. The Blues must have decided that they couldn't afford to keep a 3rd, 4th, or possibly even 5th defense who couldn't stay healthy at around $4 million or so a year.
