Texans might not have drafted Reggie because atm he seems to be a bit of a jerk, also.
But yeah, rookie contracts definitely need some sort of cap. Sooner or later there will be another Tim Couch. |

So Gates doesn't get big money coming out because he was unknown rookie, so what does he do? He gets big in like 1 or 2 seasons then holds out demanding a bigger and better contract (Much like Deion Branch is doing right now) Pretty sure Gates held last year and got a new deal before the season.
But yeah true players love seeing other plays making tons of money because then they feel they can go out there and get the money as well. This has been happening forever though, while the salaries continue to get higher - the amount the teams make gets higher and the salary cap gets higher. So it is all balanced increases really. I am sure David Carr was making a lot more than a lot of other starting QBs in the NFL when he came too, samething with Peyton Manning or any first round top 10 pick. It is just the way the NFL has been working for years now (I'd guess around the time free agency came into play) Vernon Davis being the top paid TE is a bit ridiculous, I totally agree with that but things like Mario Williams' contract, Vince Young's contract really aren't to me since it happens every single year. |

I think when Manning came out Bret Farve and Elway were the highest paid still. When Carr came out Farve was still the highest paid. I dont recall ever seeing a rookie get paid the most money at his position. I'm not completely sure though.
Gates had one great year, but that year was pretty much amazing. You could make an argument that he was one of the best players in football that year. The fact that he was undrafted and got hardly any money at all, yet he established himself as the best TE in the league, was cause for a better contract. |

Remember that one AlphaBean post when he was making fun of Rectal Pertruder and he was all "Oh snap! That's the sound Peyton Manning's chinstrap makes when he puts his helmet on."

an average QB makes a lot more than an average TE too, gotta take that into consideration. How many TEs are like "big time" guys? Gates, Gonzo, Heap, Shockey (kinda over -hyped IMO) and uhh |

Trent Green will suck without Willie, check out his stats when Roaf has been out with an injury. Would be surprised if the Cheifs even made the playoffs now, people don't look at the OLine as a big or see them as "easy to replace" since they aren't big time stars and don't have people buying their jerseys but they are the most important players on the offense. Without them none of the Superstars are gonna get shit.

Don't get me wrong, I like the Colts.. But, as a Saints fan for over 20 years, can you blame me for being optimistic this season?? Fuck sake, I'm optimistic every season, it's just that this year, I have good reason to be.. New coaching staff, new QB, new phenominal young RB, new LB, etc etc etc..
Once again, can you blame me?? |

There's no problem being optimistic, but i'm trying to remind you that your team is the Saints.

This is the NFL you really can't predict what is going to happen - cuz anything could happen. Maybe The Saints could make the Superbowl? Who knows, or maybe even Colts could win the Superbowl....well maybe not anything

Yeah their offense looks like it could be good (don't know much about their offensive line) but I haven't heard much about their defense. I know they got Will Smith on the edge but that's about all I know. I don't remember them picking up anyone that big in the draft either, but we'll see.
