Heads up: Gettleman on PFT Live at noon.

​Florio doesn't have a problem with the contract. Not that I want to defend that asshat but that's his stance.

​Whorio's stance is that's the going rate to keep a QB that's better than the crapshoot the draft has become. I'd like to see Gettleman "convince" him that Cam's supporting cast has been holding him back, and now in year 3 of the revamp Cam has the best chance in his career to shine.

Still listening to the show, and some guy emailed in asking if we'd ever see a $30m QB, obviously a stupid question unless civilization crumbles, due to inflation and salary cap adjustments. 

So that got me thinking. Why aren't we analyzing these contracts based on percentage of total cap rather than in dollars that are mildly arbitrary when comparing contracts of two QB's signed 4 years apart. Percentage of cap is the real figure that matters because it dictates the rest of your roster.

Just my $.02

    • I see what you did there
    • Yeah the only way current set up is fun is if every year a different tiny school builds a super team and makes a run. You just need 1 rich guy to say you know what would be funny, if I drop 30 million and my school has a shot at a national championship.   They won't ever do it but put some sort of tiered salary cap in place and sign them to 4 year deals. You can only transfer up or down tiers no lateral moves because mean ole coach at texas doesn't play me enough so I'm going to Tennessee. So a player at prairie view can transfer to texas and get paid more or a player from UNC can transfer to UNCG because he isn't getting playing time. If a guy is transferring "up" he can get a salary bump if the team has salary cap space. A guy transferring down has to stay at the same salary as he signed his 4 year deal for so the lower tier team would have to have the cap space to sign him. It would stop the money chasing for lateral moves but allow guys who improve massively at lower schools to make more money as juniors and seniors and hopefully keep more guys in one place because the contract is for 4 years.
