Nicks was a more well known commodity and the Bucs overpaid just as they did for Vincent Jackson. Nicks was coming off a pro bowl season as was widely known as one of, if not the best G in the league.
I would not pay Levitre that much. I predict he will get around 7 mil. Just my opinion.

If Jerry is still starting at G, something has gone wrong. This offense demands guards who can block on the run, and get out to block on screens. This is needed to be able to implement the offense the way they want to. You can't run stretch plays or screen passes without athletic guards. Jerry doesn't fit this scheme at all. He's pretty good in pass protection, though, and he could be part of competition at RT. But, I don't think there's any chance he's starting at G come September.
True. I am not overly optimistic he will be anything more than an average tackle. We'll see what kind of shape he reports in camp. I think he offers more value in a trade for a team that runs a man blocking scheme. Probably a low pick but might as well get something in a contract year.
