Nick Fairley: projected 7-10 million a year (barring performance this season)
Nick Fairley is just bonus on a dominant defensive line. He might not be needed, but his potential is still through the roof. Fisher loves the defensive line, and loves Fairley also, so this increases the chance of him getting re-signed. He doesn’t have the versatility to play defensive end yet, so his options are limited.
Likelihood: 3/5 (if he plays well)
Need: 1/5
