Andrew Luck - QB -  Colts

Ben Volin of the Boston Globe expects Andrew Luck's next contract to be a four-year deal worth over $100 million.

The Colts have the option to franchise tag Luck in 2017, but the two sides are working to complete an extension before training camp. Luck would be smart to take a four-year deal so he can hit the market again when he's still in his prime at age 30. The former No. 1 pick is expected to become the first player in NFL history to sign a deal worth more than $25 million in annual salary.

I seriously want people to go back two years ago when everyone was crying about Newton's potential contract being $20M a year, saying that we should franchise tag and then trade Newton for draft picks, and we should keep drafting 1st round QBs instead of giving Newton so much of the salary cap...

I told the Huddle then that Andrew Luck's overrated self was going to get a ridiculous $25M a year deal and no one will bat an eye. I said some would even consider it a bargain for the Colts!

What I could not predict was just how awful of a season Luck would be coming off of to still get that deal.

I remember the Huddle laughing at Seattle for even THINKING about giving Wilson $17M a year saying that he was not worth it and would cripple their team.

But let me guess Huddle, Luck is totally worth it, right? Newton and Wilson totally deserves about $12M while Luck deserves about $35M, right?

And over the next four years he'll keep drafting WRs and do nothing for the oline while his QB turns into an organ donor

Ryan Kelly is a great player and pick.  Great news for all those that want to see the crash and burn though is too little/too late after so many other stupid moves.  The rest of that division gained ground as well.

      this is true.  But NFL Ss and defenses are actively taking that away and playing to take them away vs most teams.  The problem thus far in BY's career......is they are cheating and not respecting the deep game which makes the smaller/mid range game harder to pull off.  and Dallas is an anomaly game.  using those random games as well, look at this......doesn't really change the discussion/issues in Carolina.  Bryce Young took the shots this week because they were not just NFL open but college open.    Wide open dudes downfield that really were coverage busts/issues.

      I will simply counter all that with: you should always strive, at every turn, to avoid indoctrinating young players into a culture of not playing to win the game.  Come man, that is an egghead academic approach that ignores the human element. it looks good on paper. Maybe.  In the voice of the great  Herm Edwards: Hello! You play to win the game.  I completely understand the need but that is not the way….
