OK...it isn't just me! $10M is a lot of money for a guy that really needs to prove himself as a consistent receiver. The contract may be heavily weighted towards incentives rather than base pay, but still, that's a lot of cash over 2 years.

We paid 10 million to a receiver who didn't catch a single ball last year. So they are hoping for results similar to the previous year......just like we are.

Good luck Willie. I will miss saying "I feel the need for Snead."

especially when there were no other bidders (presumably)
Willie's agent is the GOAT
