I think many people got emotionally involved during the AD negotiations and said things that were wrong about him as a player and leader. It is normal for people to pick sides in these situations and go a bit overboard for one side or the other.
The should however be no doubt the AD the leader of the defense and the hardest working on the team. AD is a Hall of Famer in the making and arguably the best defensive player in football. We are lucky to have him on our team.
As for the contract I think it just took a while for both sides to realize what fair value was and we should all be glad that contract negotiations will be a thing of the past.
