Who is going to get paid more?

So, now since Cam Newton's Contract details have been made public. Who is going to get paid more?

Will Luke's Contract be more? Do LB get paid more than a QB? Is Luke expecting a Big Contract? IMO Luke wouldn't mind a huge payday, however, I don't think he cares that much about big money, as long as he is paid decent.

Is this a serious question?

 

Luke will get a huge payday, for a MLB, and he will stay here in Carolina. There is no way he goes elsewhere. MLB is the QB of the defense, but the pay will be about half of what Cam got. Perhaps a little more. Linebackers do not get close to QB money. That's just the way it is.

Elite DLINE, can get close...and an extra elite WR, OLINE and a CB here and there but QB money is big money.

Since this thread basically went down the gutter, I'll save it by making a better question out of the thread title...

 

Who is going to get paid more? Wilson or Luck?

 

 

 

Answer: whoever gets paid last.

Luck, easy. I see Luck getting a 5 year 115 mil deal with 75 million guaranteed.

​I think he will too, but I think it'll be because the Colts will be in no rush to extend him since they have the 5th year option. Wilson does not, so his will come first and Luck's agents will want to top that. If Luck's comes first, Wilson's agents will want to top it by arguing he won a Super Bowl and got them to another. So whoever signs first will make less. May be a power struggle by the agents to get more and they'll end up having some complications and franchise tagging, etc. I'd love to see that.

Even the top middle linebackers don't make quarterback money.

I suspect Luke will probably have little to nothing to do with his contract talks. Kuechly strikes me as a 'talk to my agent about that stuff' type.

      Some of you act like one can't learn from experience over time. Just because you may not know what you're doing in 2018 doesn't mean that you don't know what you're doing in 2025. Frankly, you grow from experience, and success and excellence gives first-time applicants the hand probably 99.999% of the time.

      It's an interesting topic of conversation as sports evolves. I think ultimately it would lead to a number of small market franchises folding though. Especially in the NBA where there are so many bad teams that have been bad for years and years in some cases already. But as it stands I think athlete pay draft or no draft aside has reached a point where we can and should realistically ask should they make that much compared to the average person. Now college athletes is a different conversation but even that reaches a breaking point. But we could go down the rabbit hole on this even further into overall entertainment and talk about actors making absurd sums too. In the end I think in sports the powers that be won't allow these changes to even be considered because it opens the door for so many other variables. But who knows how long sports like football will realistically be around after people like us pass on. We're only just now learning about things like CTE which the league and the sport in general will only be able to run away from for so long. As far as the NBA goes my understanding is viewership has been steadily going down for a number of reasons but one crucial aspect is key players missing so many games. The NBA has to figure that out regardless. Especially when considering fans who pay to see these athletes compete in person. But hey I guess let's just try to appreciate what we've got while it still exists in this form eh?

      I can't see a world where the money goes down, but maybe your lottery odds are now your contract numbers you can offer.  Thunder? You can offer Flagg 4 years, 20 million.  Hornets? You can offer Flagg 4 years, 80 million.  Some form of a system where the money is still there, but so is the freedom of choice (on top of bad teams getting *some* competitive advantage to signing them).
