Who the TE is wasn't my point. The point was rising tides raises all boats. This Vernon Davis deal simply reflects the increase in the salary cap. All TEs will see a good boost, and some TEs will soon blow this Vernon Davis contract right out of the water. Who that TE is, you can split hairs about that all you want. All I'm saying is that this deal seems crazy now, but when you consider the salary cap increases, it's not that out of whack.
