Paying 14 mill to Cassel and drafting Stafford or Sanchez would be ridiculous.

When I say that exact same thing people immediately start lecturing me about how "spending a lot this year will hurt us in the long run" BS. It pisses me off. Damn flip floppers.

One big difference though - quarterbacks are the golden goose. More you have the better value you can get for them if they are worth a damn.

I'm going to take a wild guess here that when you say that you are discussing drafting a LT #3 overall.

You aren't talking about spending "a lot this year".
You are talking about investing long term contracts into two positions on the O-Line with Albert and #3 overall.

Big difference, and I'm betting you actually knew this.

I don't know if this matters much or not. All they have to do is work out a contract for a player that's front loaded and long term friendly. To get a better grip on this though one would need to look at the numbers of top 5 rookie contracts to see how they're written. I guessing that the rookie contracts this year will be all about signing bonus and guaranteed money so it may be front loaded. That said I still wouldn't draft an OT with the 3rd pick this year.
