“Casey Hayward and Denzel Perryman. Speaking of Hayward, the former Packers corner is due for a huge raise after emerging as one of the best cornerbacks in all of football. Hayward's three-year, $15.3 million deal has been one of the biggest free-agent steals in recent memory for the Chargers, as Hayward has gone from being a slot cornerback with the Packers to a guy capable of competing with any receiver in football anywhere on the field.
Hayward, 28, has racked up 11 interceptions over the past two years, and with one year left on that contract, the Chargers are going to have to offer their star corner a new deal as early as this offseason. There's every reason to think the Chargers will need to give Hayward an extension in the five-year, $70 million range to stay in Los Angeles for years to come.”
