So yes, the argument why are you going to make Curry the highest paid LB in the NFL applies to other positions as well.

Just looking at guaranteed money is idiotic for QBs. They aren't running backs. Manning, Roethlisberger, McNabb all got over 100 million in their contracts. Ryan wasn't even close to that.
