Renegotiation Update

We managed to get one new deal done with our veteran players – WR Jimmy Castellano.

Catellano is a natural split end (the only one on the team who naturally plays there) and has pretty solid ratings in the 40-75 ratings in nearly every key area, all except for “route running.” Which means that we’d expect him to be exactly what he is – productive when the ball comes his way, which isn’t all that often. In his two years of meaningful playing time with us, he has 1328 yards and 6 TDs – mediocre for a starting receiver, but not so bad. He also has a strong affinity with WR Jimmy Newbury, our position leader, and the deal is pretty affordable – only $1.5 million a year each season.

On balance, I’m pleased with the deal – we need to get better at WR anyway, but Castellano is a guy I don’t mind keeping around.
