USA Today/Saints Wire: Projecting a Michael Thomas contract extension with Saints

Re: USA Today/Saints Wire: Projecting a Michael Thomas contract extension with Saints

We will pay him to help Drew get another Lombardi or two until Drew retires and then make the new QB look good when he takes over the reigns. Besides, he's earned it!

To find out, we consulted the Market Value Calculator over at Spotrac.com, which proposes the largest contract for a wide receiver in NFL history: $102,331,350 over five years, at an average annual salary of $20.4 million. That would boost Thomas from No. 90 among the league’s wideouts in per-year salary to No. 1. In the greater scope of the entire NFL, he’d go from No. 813 to No. 18.

He HAS earned it. Pay da man!
