If you're a GM and pay your QB top 5 money just because he's a FA you're a $3itty GM and a fool.
Manning got Manning money because he's Manning. Brady got Brady money because, that's right, he's Tom Brady.
Smith is getting Smith money because he's ****ing Alex Smith. I'd be shocked if Dorsey suddenly got stupid with the checkbook. He's drafting people for the sole purpose of replacing high $$$ talent currently on the roster. He let almost all our FA's walk because he didn't want to pay any of them...

Mannings contract is not in the top 5 in the league now. Bradys contract is now barely in the top 15.
If you have a QB that is a FA and you believe he can play at a high level for X amount of years then you should sign him to a contract accordingly. Just because this will be Alex's last contract doesn't mean he isn't worth a contract similar to the QBs that are around him in quality of play.
Dorsey has overpaid for several of our players. He has not be frugal by any means.
