But it's interesting to see who else is on the list...

The five highest-paid NFL players for 2011:

1. Peyton Manning, Indianapolis, quarterback, $23 million

2. Sam Bradford, St. Louis, quarterback, $18.4 million

3. Tom Brady, New England, quarterback, $18 million

4. Michael Vick, Philadelphia, quarterback, $15.9 million

5. Richard Seymour, Oakland, defensive lineman, $15 million

If you're Tom Brady, do you care?

I think I can see an owner like Al Davis doing this but do you think we'll ever see a player get up to 25-30% of a teams salary cap. If a player like Peyton Manning can top out at around 17-18%, I don't think any other one player would be worth it.

If Tom don't care that his wife makes more than him, than he can't care that Peyton and Sam do also.

I like the sport more than I like any one player.

How is that bashing? Dude tried to put Bradford as a prospect to Cam as a prospect.

They are completely different. Sam was much more polished and had more tape. EVERYONE knew Cam was a complete project with huge potential.

    • At this point, I think Chubba is the odd man out. I hate that, but I think Dowdle gives us more production and big play ability.  But there is still a lot of football to play.  I think it depends on how much Dowdle will want too.
    • I’ve been anti-trade when it comes to Melo, but the way this season has started, it may be time.  I love his game and he’s a cool dude, but I’m starting to think, if he’s your best player, you’re never going to win anything of significance.  Too many brain farts, too many injuries, and ultimately for as fun and entertaining as he is to watch - his game is indeed a thing of beauty - it just doesn’t translate to wins.  And that’s IF he even plays.  I think it’s time to cash out and maximize the return.  I love Melo, but I think it’s pretty clear what the ceiling is for a team where he is the best player.
    • Every NFL team, college program, hell even HS has numerous "what ifs" that got derailed by injury. It's a brutal sport and half the battle is just getting lucky enough to stay healthy. Doesn't matter how durable you are and how well you take care of your body everyone is one weird hit or awkward twist away from a career derailing injury.
