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.

    • Nina King continues to run circles around the rest of college basketball. She's been ahead of the curve on everything, and is the biggest reason for Duke's success post-K IMO. I think Scheyer is great at many things, but Duke went into the NIL era 100% ready whereas everyone else was playing catchup. 
    • Happy they won convincingly instead of letting them hang around. Montreal is cooked, and rather than play hockey, they've decided to take some really cheap shots at guys. I get a player may feel a need to set the tone, and I understand how that works. But to 2-hand cross check someone intentionally in the face, to have a guy down on the ice and put his head into the ice with a stick, to just start punching anyone who gets within arm's reach- that's not setting the tone. That is nothing short of playing dirty.  That said, the Canes.... oh boy. They could have run this score to 6-0 with half a power play. It's embarrassing how bad the PP is. If the Canes go to the Cup finals against a team who scores at least 1 goal per game on the PP, they'll lose the close games because of the lack of results on the PP. 
    • Because he knows they are winning the cup. And I fully support his decision.
