I actually don't think the great franchise QBs make enough. We've got a bunch of good QBs making $17M, $18M. Guys like Dalton, Alex Smith, Matt Stafford, Matt Ryan, Phillip Rivers. And then you have Aaron Rodgers making $24M.

The difference of $6M per year is what, a quality starting middle linebacker? Or a quality starting TE in the mold of a Marcedes Lewis? Maybe not even?

I would much, much rather have Aaron Rodgers than Phillip Rivers and whatever $6M in cap space can buy me. I think there's justification for Luck to make $30M+.
