OK is he worth the Highest salary for a safety in the History of the NFL. or not if not you overpaid. Simple is he worth the top 5? what has he done to deserve that raise thats my question?

If Arch makes the TEAM better and his play is part of the equation that results in a better WL record, his price is more than worth it. Conversely, TO is expensive at any price because of the probabilty his impact on the team will be a gigantic negative.

i agree. this is why i dont see why anyone wuld want his gigantic contract because unless your team is just a player away frmo super bowl contention, you dont get him. hes a hired gun, nothing more.

Re: Sources Tell Hooskins Owens Will Sign With Dallas

make sure the you capitalize "History of the NFL." And lets forget about the inherent relativity in determining the value of the dollar. Ya know, $1 today is $1 yesterday and all. Come on dude. The value of a Dan Snyder $1 is alot less than a Ram $1. Because we have more of them. Money doesnt establish value. The buyer's demand establishes value.

Good lord, are we on the Gold Standard still?

Ok overpaying a safety that may hurt the team in the future (conceding to your opinion for the point of this argument) that upgrades a position at the very least .... OR ..... taking on a bipolar (now conceding to my opinion) wr that may destroy an entire team... it happened with the only 2 teams he has been with before and stirred up a team that he never was a teammate of (Ravens). Now that's not overpaying, that's priceless.

Re: Sources Tell Hooskins Owens Will Sign With Dallas

Remember during ast year's training camp when Reid yelled at TO and TO said something to the effect of "Is your last name Owens? Only my mother talks to me that way." Given Parcells jolly nature, especially during training camp, I wonder how long he can restrain himself from vocalizing his displeasure at TO.

That is a very good point, I really either Parcells with have to soften(which wont happen) or TO is going to eurupt. I can not wait till Cowboys training camp!!!

Keep in mind just how well Bledsoe and KJ got along. Combine that with how neither TO or Bledsoe are known for being real stoic.

This is going to be so fun to watch. I can't wait. I'm really looking forward to seeing Dallas visit Philly. Eagles fans don't know how to treat Santa with respect. They're going to have a freaking riot on their hands.

Well, I know what he hasn't done. He hasn't gotten burned twice on deep TD passes in the final few minutes of a huge Monday night rivalry game at home in front of a viewing audience of millions, thereby costing his team the game...........so I guess I'm comfortable with him making more money than some other so-called elite safeties out there.

Oh, and Roger Stauback never got paid as much as Joey Harrington..........does that mean Joey Harrington is a better QB? Time value of money......makes the whole "History of the NFL" comment a little ridiculous.
