This is a 3 year, 21 million dollar deal. I think 7 million per year is a little rich for Matt Hasselbeck, considering he’s so injury prone, and I don’t like that this is a three year deal. Hasselbeck is 36 in September and he’s had so many injury problems, not to mention that he was never an elite quarterback, so I don’t think he can do the Brett Favre thing and play well late into his 30s. Plus, they have Jake Locker. They just spent the 8^th overall pick on him. How much development does he need? However, they needed to sign a veteran quarterback. Locker will benefit from some time on the bench as most quarterbacks normally do. They overpaid, but they might not have had a choice.
