Once he gets cut, he'll probably balloon to 350lbs and fade into oblivion. I can't stand guys like him.

Speaking of busts. JR is a PRIME example of what a true bust happens to be. What a waste of a tremendous amount of CASH.

This fat cat is the exact reason the CBA is in dire need of restructure.

Russell is definately a massive bust at this point, but you never know, he could get out from under the dysfunctional raiders thumb and do something somewhere else. He needed to be tutored and he was thrown in to the wolves. He needs to simmer on someone's bench for a year or two, then maybe he could resurface somewhere and do something. Of course, this is unlikely, but just saying.

there has been a dire need for a rookie wage scale for a long time now. there is no way anyone should receive anything more than 5 mil guaranteed without playing a down of nfl football.

as for contracts like fat al's that's just piss poor management right there

I agree. I mean, Sam Bradford is going to get around $50M in guarantees before he ever lines up under center for the Rams. I think it's unfair for these high dollar rookies to eat up that much cash at the expense of proven vets who have already shed plenty of blood for their team(s).

Also, a lot of these kids who just became overnight millionares are pretty immature. Giving them all that cash increases the chances that they'll get lazy or screw up. Make them earn some of it before you give them 8 figures of guaranteed $.
