Sam Bradford is the OG bag collector.

Shout out to Brock Osweiler for collecting almost $42 mil in career earnings for 30 career starts.

Osweiler: $1.38 mil/start

Bradford: $1.566 mil/start

Cousins: $1.925 mil/start

Yeah but he did it under the old CBA.  Cousins got paid multiple times since then. 

That's a valid point because that was during the uncapped draft era. Bradford got $78 mil of his career $130 mil earnings on his rookie contract.

I think Bradford was also the last straw and motivating cause for bringing in a rookie wage system.

And he will get another one from whoever signs him next.

At 37, with career earnings > $320M, I'd be putting on a suit and looking for an announcer gig, if it were me. Or just say fuggit and sail off into the sunset.

BUT... It would be tempting to go the Andy Dalton route and hold a clip board for a few years. I'm sure it's hard to step away from something you've loved since you were 6 YO.

It was the new CBA and basically the older vets anger at the rookie deals taking money from their pockets in free agency that was the big changing influence. The NFLPA was just as motivated to get some reasonable structure in place.

    • The lack of discipline has seriously been our downfall the last month. Seems like we just went off course this last month and Lee won't address it. You can't just live and die by the 3 when you can attack the paint and at worst draw a foul
    • Great season regardless of what happens. From starting out 4-14 to ending 44-38 is incredible progress and future is bright from here. I do think we can beat the Heat and then win on the road against either Orlando or Philly assuming Embiid doesn’t miraculously return sooner. But if not, a higher draft pick is nice too
    • I know a DT that's asking for a trade: 🤔 maybe a home discount can be worked out. Dan Morgan could create up to $80 million in space through restructures of stars like Derrick Brown, Jaycee Horn, or Taylor Moton. They could also include players like Tershawn Wharton ($18.6M cap hit) in the trade to balance the salaries. Carolina Receives: DT  Dexter Lawrence II New York Receives: 2026 2nd Round Pick (No. 51 Overall): A premium Day 2 selection that fits the for  Lawrence  after his 0.5-sack season in 2025. WR  Xavier Legette : A young, high-upside receiver who provides the playmaking depth HC John Harbaugh needs for his offense. 2026 4th Round Pick: Immediate mid-round value. 2027 4th Round Pick (via MIN): Future capital acquired in the  Adam Thielen  trade.  ----- Stone Forsythe* (another young player as a potential trade option)provides immediate offensive line retooling for HC John Harbaugh.    John Harbaugh's history in Baltimore proves he values draft volume over individual superstars.    Just my 2cents
