IMO this is one of the reasons that salaries have gotten so out of control. LJ is not as good as LT, so he shouldn't be paid as well. If the logic is more money added to the cap, then LT should have his deal restructured. LT is too classy to ask for that though........

Don't matter, LJ is only half the player LT is, he does not deserve LT type money.

This logic gets thrown out the window in the NFL.

When the first pick in the draft makes more than 90% of the players in the league, the payscale doesn't mean shit.

The first pick in the draft is not getting LT type guaranteed money, sure the contract value appears to be larger but that is illusion.

Mario Williams had 26.5 in guaranteed money last year as the top pick. Wasn't LT's contract 20 or 24 guaranteed?

I'm not surprised, I said two years ago LJ would probably be the first Chief to want 30+ million in signing bonus... really there aren't too many players who broke that plateau, but with the way he's played and the way the market has blown up, he's gonna say he wants more money than Tomlinson.

This doesn't have anything to do with being cheap. Paying a 27 year old RB that kind of money just isn't smart for the franchise. I hope we'll be able to strike a deal, and I know this is probably just his agent coming out with a ridiculous number to start the negotiations high, but if this is really the kind of money he wants, it would be better for us not to give it to him.

Unless, of course, all you care about is jersey sales and not success as a team.

Bullshit, so you would pay him that kind of jack if you were GM? Christ, if that's the case, you make Peterson look good.

No, it's called recognizing a potentially very risky bad investment.

If you didn't live in the family basement and had to worry about such economic concepts, you might recognize it yourself.

LOL.

Whatever. I'm sure your understanding of 80-million dollar contracts is soooooooo much better than mine. What a farce.

The "concept" I mentioned is investments, and recognizing a risky or bad one.

I'm quite confident I have a greater understanding of that than you.

However, feel free to believe whatever you want.

Paying a (by then nearly 29 year old) RB that kind of money is the real farce, but I wouldn't expect a love struck fanboy like yourself to recognize that either.
