Berry - 172 tackles, 22 PD, 5 INT, 1 FF, 3.5 sacks (2,435 snaps)
I'm sure there's some other mystical, intangible quality Eric Berry possesses though.
Flame away.

I would agree there.
You're looking at upwards of $55 mil for 5-6 years right now as I'm sure that he and his reps are pushing for him to get paid more than Harrison Smith did. That's a ridiculous number for a safety who isn't a shutdown cover guy or an elite Ballhawk/centerfielder.
They would probably rather save that money to spend on Poe or something.
