I'll think it was a bargain.

I hate to argue over this point, but lets take two receivers:
Receiver #1: Career totals over four years:
151 receptions
2416 yards
19 TDs
Receiver #2: Career totals over four years:
227 receptions
2997 yards
22 TDs
Hmm....guess who is who?
Receiver #1 is Santana Moss, who just signed a huge contract; and Receiver #2 is Rod Gardner, who is being run out of town.
Now, I'm not saying I'm a Gardner fan, but I'm not a fan of overpaying players who haven't proved anything either.
This is another stupid move, in a litany of stupid moves, from the worst personnel department in the NFL - not the cheapest, but the most incompetent when it comes to handing out contracts and making trades.
