Good teams are made up of guys like Rock who think team first and do their job well. That's not exciting enough for the Danny...

In the NFL this year, among returners who had 20 or more kick returns, Rock Cartwright was #8 with an average of 25.8 yards per return.
The others were:
1. Josh Cribbs
2. Andre Davis
3. Aundrae Allison
4. Leon Washington
5. Darren Sproles
6. Maurice Jones-Drew
7. Ellis Hobbs
8. Rock

According to the Times: Redskins' Rock seeks hefty contract - - The Washington Times, America's Newspaper
"I would love to stay, but it's up to the front office," said Cartwright, whose salary cap figure this season is $680,000. "[NFL punt return leader] Roscoe Parrish just got [$4.35 million] guaranteed [in a three-year, $10 million deal] from Buffalo. I don't expect to match that, but I want something similar, some type of security."

Before we crucify the FO on this, let's see what his contract demands are. Then ask whether those terms are "fair" for a guy who is the 8th best return guy in terms of yards per return. Everybody gets on the FO for overpaying players, so lets see how this shakes out.
