NFL on ESPN: C.Johnson NFL most over paid player

Yes, our DE made the top of the list for over paid players. We will see what transpires down the road with his contract. They say his production does not justify his pay stub. What do you all think and what will happen after this season?

​He's making 20 mill this year.  Not a tremendous amount?  Huh?  

You can't just look at the worst cap hit on a six year deal. It's not his fault Hurney backloaded his contract. Over the course of his contract it averages 12.5 mil a year which is pretty much in line with what premier DEs make.

They didn't watch him play they only looked at his stats and pay then said this. He was hurt and had no one playing across from him last year and even the whole D slumped a bit, but by the end of the season I remember saying to myself that he is finally playing up to his pay check. If he keeps that up all season the 20 mil would be worth it.

You may have a point though I think he's played more like a 10mil per yr guy.

lol @ anyone that thinks he isn't vastly overpaid. this will be the last of the hurney blunders that we have to maneuver around.

He certainly benefitted from an artifically-inflated market when he hit FA, but I think the real crime was the awful structure moreso than the salary itself.

    • Here is what it said about him coming out of college: Overview A three-year starter with good feet and technique, Samac could be in consideration for a move-blocking rushing attack. He is strong at the point of attack but will have limitations against NFL power. He operates with good hand placement and nimble feet and is a demon once he’s on the move as a pulling center leading the way. He’s fluid and agile in the run game, but those traits fail to do as much for him in protection. Samac punches with inside hands but can struggle to widen his protection base in order to protect his edges. He has eventual starting talent as a run blocker but needs to add more mass and improve in pass protection to get there.
    • Through 2 games cltfc has 12 shot attempts. Opponents 23 shots on target. Attack sucks, Defense definitely sucks. Kahlina is the only reason they haven't given up 14 goals in two games. 
    • I met a few times--never liked him. I figured he might have had a bad day--but then realized that he must have a lot of bad days. Once he raised his voice at my son because my son did not understand a question when SS was signing his jersey.  I wanted the jersey to represent his encounter with a Panther great, not some small man with a bad attitude.  I told me son, "Forget it.  He was asking you what your name is (My son was about 7 and told me that he thought Smitty was going to write (my son's) name on the jersey.  He said "Dad, I thought he was supposed to write HIS name on the jersey, not mine."  I said, "He was personalizing it, writing it to you--like a birthday card."  He is now grown, and he has a steve smith Jersey that is framed and matted.  He keeps it is his closet.  I asked him, "Why not have that out on your wall?"  He said, "All I remember is an A-hole scribbled on my shirt.  I don't remember a legend or hero.  But he had a Jake Delhomme Jersey on his wall.  "Jake was great.  I will always remember that."  (Jake stayed and talked to us for about 5 minutes or more--GREAT guy.)
