As a whole, fans would do a lot better by not looking at it from an overall $ amount perspective. They would do better by looking at "value".

Who really cares what we pay a player as long as there is value added to the team? We do not write the checks, they do not come out of our accounts.

Is 20M a year over paying a QB? Perhaps 10M/year is underpaying a QB that brought you a Super Bowl Championship.

"If" Drew plays out his present contract in the span of 11 years he will have been paid 160M... That is 14.5M per year over his career with the Saints. Is 14.5M/year too much to pay your best hope for a SB?

If we get a 500k player and he preforms like a 2M player we have value, if we get a 500k player and he preforms like a 500k player we have no value.
