Captain Hindsight Posted January 20, 2015 Posted January 20, 2015 Douchetool thought he coached above his pay grade
GOBILLS78 Posted January 20, 2015 Posted January 20, 2015 Really looking forward to watching Preston Brown develop. I'm not sure what his ceiling is, but what a great rookie season.
plenzmd1 Posted January 20, 2015 Posted January 20, 2015 So, not to be all cranky and old...but that list is just rookies or young players who have not gotten to their second contract yet(outside Boobie..and Boobies are always underrated)...i dunno, seems useless to me

chef4131 Posted January 20, 2015 Posted January 20, 2015 I would be curious to see the 10 who did not play to their pay grade in 2014
YoloinOhio Posted January 20, 2015 Author Posted January 20, 2015 I would be curious to see the 10 who did not play to their pay grade in 2014I'll start:1. Keith Rivers 2. Eric Pears
4merper4mer Posted January 20, 2015 Posted January 20, 2015 I would be curious to see the 10 who did not play to their pay grade in 2014 Mike Williams was not allowed to make his pay grade.
LB3 Posted January 20, 2015 Posted January 20, 2015 I'll start: 1. Keith Rivers 2. Eric Pears Love the guy, but... 3. Eric Wood
YoloinOhio Posted January 20, 2015 Author Posted January 20, 2015 Love the guy, but... 3. Eric Wood 4. Kyle Orton
eSJayDee Posted January 20, 2015 Posted January 20, 2015 4. Kyle Orton Actually, it seems that the going rate for mediocre starting QB is around $10m now ($20m for elite). Although he didn't even play up to the level of mediocrity, he did start 12 games, w/ little indication there was any inclination to bench him, in which case I think he did indeed live up to his $5m.
Mr. WEO Posted January 20, 2015 Posted January 20, 2015 Actually, it seems that the going rate for mediocre starting QB is around $10m now ($20m for elite). Although he didn't even play up to the level of mediocrity, he did start 12 games, w/ little indication there was any inclination to bench him, in which case I think he did indeed live up to his $5m. I agree with this. For 5 million? First winning season is a decade+? As for the OP list--I agree witht he top 4. Rookies don't count--certainly if Cordy Glenn was getting big time LT money, no one would think he played up to his contract. Duke Williams committed the dumbest PI in NFL history.
TheBillsWillRiseAgain Posted January 20, 2015 Posted January 20, 2015 Bradham and Robey are steals at those prices. I don't count Preston Brown because rookie contracts are supposed to be that low.
Formerly Allan in MD Posted January 20, 2015 Posted January 20, 2015 Don't know what he made but if it was high for a second year pro, EJ.
Rubes Posted January 20, 2015 Posted January 20, 2015 Jeez, I dunno...Jerry Hughes cost us $4 million last year, and I'd say he played above his pay grade. Why not count that?
Best Player Available Posted January 20, 2015 Posted January 20, 2015 Sanborn, Carpenter earned their checks IMO.
The Wiz Posted January 20, 2015 Posted January 20, 2015 Hogan might see a nice payday. Not rediculous but for a 3rd receiver he will probably double or possibly triple his salary.

Contributions from those on rookie contracts will be the difference between the SB and an also ran.
Quester74 Posted January 21, 2015 Posted January 21, 2015 I'll start: 1. Keith Rivers 2. Eric Pears Any QB.. Any TE.. Any G..
