If you think Ginn is gonna be the 3rd or 4th receiver on this deal you are mistaken...now he may fall down the depth chart, but that is not 3rd string or lower money. Backups don't get paid $3 million guaranteed. They've got just over 9 million committed to the receiver group for 2017 - he represents a third of that total. 

So look forward to your new number two receiver, because he was definitely brought in to fulfill Cooks' role.

In what world are you living in that $3 million is a lot in thr NFL? This isn't the 90s.

Ted no longer gets the benefit of this kind of incredible coverage with his new team though...

My dude actually had a really good season after that lol, but he definitely lost the ball in the Superdome roof on that one lol. That GIF will live with him forever.

Since you're a Saints rep I can see why the logic is lost on you...teams carry 5-6 receivers, your team is paying a 1/3 of the money dedicated to the receiver group to one guy in a group of five or six. 

That is not back up money given how much of the receiver payroll he's accounting for, Thomas and Ginn outside, and Snead in the slot. Ginn isn't a slot receiver, he runs the vert,the deep post, deep comebacks, and reverses. For better or worse he's gonna be the #2. 

I never said it was a lot of money to begin with, but it's not back up money, and you don't pay one guy a third of the money dedicated to a position group to be the 4th receiver. He's a cheaper, less talented version of Cooks that is the role he will fill in (deep threat). Snead doesn't scare a defense over the top.
