This has nothing to do with who's better than who, this is a group of QBs that have not played to the expectations of their contract and money in terms of wins, playoff appearances, etc,. etc. But it also shows that teams always are going to overpay QBs, and the market of QBs will dictate that.

And I picked these QBs since they are in Andrew Brandt's Business Hall of Fame list.

I get that part, I'm just saying Kirk got paid but he's been solid since his payday.

He has been solid, but he doesn't get paid "solid QB" money. But when he went on the market, he was the best QB available and gets to dictate whatever money he gets paid.

Going back to people wanting a "cheap QB" that will rarely happen. Especially this year when we have a seemingly not so great rookie QB class. A lot of these tier 2 and 3 QBs are going to get overpaid, because of the market.

The going rate for a Tier 2 QB is $25M+ per year.
Wentz, Cousins, Tannehill, and Ryan all make about $30mil per year.
Ignore the guys on rookie contracts or at the end of the a long contract, those numbers are misleading.
