Before I even looked.....Cousins.

Cousins is the obvious one but this topic makes me think back to Albert Haynesworth. Sam Bradford is another one that comes to mind.

Meh, maybe but he did win an MVP and got to a SB. Putting up 28 points in the first half vs. Belichick is pretty good. Sadly, the second half collapse by the entire team is the only thing people will ever remember. 28-3 baby. Lol.

No wonder Zack Martin is staying home. We're doomed again

Interesting to see that the first 5 nonQBs on the list are:

13. Larry Fitzgerald (17 seasons, 3rd overall pick)
17. Ndamukong Suh (13 seasons, 2nd overall pick)
18. Julius Peppers (17 seasons, 2nd overall pick)
19. Von Miller (12 seasons, 2nd overall pick)
20. Trent Williams (13 seasons, 4th overall pick)

Eli made more than Peyton

"Brady is a team first guy who always took less"

His 7 Super Bowl rings confirms it.

That doesn't make any sense...but, ok...

Yes it does, assuming you were being sarcastic.

 

[R.J. MacReady]

"Brady is a team first guy who always took less"

But that extra 28k he gets more the the 2nd guy ...you get 6 more SB wins.

Yup, it's nuts.

I recall the SNL skit with Father Guido Sarducci where "baseball has been very, very good to Pete Rose" when he signed for $1 million...looking at that made me think about how nuts sports contracts have gotten.

Been saying for a decade that Stafford would retire as the guy who has made the most money.

Had perfect timing coming into the league.

He might hold the title for a little while, but he also needs to stay healthy, and that seems to be an issue recently

You might be right...of course it was about 50 years ago...so my memory isn't so great at that kind of distance
