Is it not enough that the NFL splits all of the profits evenly among all the owners/teams regardless of how much money generating that team brings to the NFL table? I hear Jacksonville's season ticket holders base is so small it is an embarrassment.

Garcon is (still) far too inconsistent a threat to command anywhere near what the FO paid him either. Not just his injury status, which is still a concern, but looking at his overall production in the NFL. Remember, this is a guy who still can't break 1000 yards in a season. Hopefully he rebounds and earns that contract starting this season.

To think we could have paid just a little more this off-season for a guy like Mike Wallace. Argh!

I do agree that all those players are overpaid except for Trent Williams.

I disagree in trying to sign Mike Wallace. He is not worth 60 million over 5 years.

Definitely not considering he's mostly a one trick pony.

Garçon proved to be a difference maker when he was in the lineup.

The only team I would not put on that list is Cincinnati, they just do not like spending money on players they do not draft.
