Technically Bushrod makes more money than Evans... but it's only because of the way his contract is structured. Usually when you give a large signing bonus, the first couple years of the contract carries a lower base salary. Don't be mistaken... Evans makes the big dollars. NFL contracts are tied into guaranteed money and signing bonuses, not a bunch of f aux money players won't see.

You know who I want gone. The scout that has seniority and gets to look at the top prospects. Him. He's gone. Whoever is finding these late round gems needs a promotion. Our high draft picks don't seem to pan out. Oh yeah, Sharper should be a defensive coach.
