Okay, I'm going to list the top 10 salaries from the 2004 NFL draft:
Player: Base Salary Signing Bonus Other Total Eli Manning $1,744,000 $3,000,000 $0 $4,744,000
Robert Gallery $1,300,000 $8,000,016 $0 $9,300,016
Larry Fitzgerald $1,050,000 $7,500,000 $0 $8,550,000
Phillip Rivers $230,000 $7,650,000 $1,075,000 $8,955,000
Sean Taylor
Kellen Winslow $230,000 $6,000,000 $720,000 $6,950,000
Roy Williams $360,000 $4,500,000 $950,000 $5,810,000
DeAngelo Hall $230,000 $2,100,000 $1,320,000 $3,650,000
Reggie Williams $1,176,000 $3,200,000 $0 $4,376,000
Dunta Robinson $962,500 $4,070,000 $0 $5,032,500

As lovely as it is, this site doesn't have the Redskins salary cap information (must be too much to keep up with!)
http://www.theredzone.org/2004/salar...ary&position=S There's a list of top safety paychecks.

http://www.theredzone.org/2004/salaries/index.asp there's the website I got everyone's salary from except Taylor's.

Contract Details
Taylor inked a seven-year deal worth $18 million on July 27, 2004. The contract includes a $7.2 million signing bonus. Sources told the Associated Press that the contract has escalator clauses that can make the deal worth up to $40 million over six years, and the seventh year can be voided.
I'm really not sure how to turn it into a per-year thing like the rest of em, so if anyone wants to help go ahead, but as you can see 18M over 7 years is nothing. Escalators are nice, but not great.
