Our needs are part of what determines the market, in short how much do we 'need' him. They'll certainly try to get us to overpay & why not? we've shown little restraint in the past, plus Smoot may feel he's entitled to more here.
On skins insider someone said that Tenn. is looking at signing smoot & that makes sense w/pacman's problems. As was pointed out, Tenn. is closer to Miss.
my point is smoot will have options so his agents will be able to up the price cause it's a slim market. Same thing w/Springs, there might be some good $ out there if he tests the waters.
