Did crazy Al ink top 4?

BroncoBuff · 03-05-2008, 05:14 PM

Poll coming?

I say it's Tommie Kelly by a nose over Javon.

rovolution · 03-05-2008, 05:14 PM

Javon
Kwame Harris
Tommy Kelly
Gibril Wilson

Giving Kwame Harris any money at all is stupid as hell. Giving Javon Walker a big contract is a close second.

montrose · 03-05-2008, 05:40 PM

Harris. Of all those names, he is one who undoubtedly can't play. Every person up there was vastly overpaid perhaps with the exception of Justin Smith. With that all of the other players up there are at least competent with the potential to be more whereas Harris has been a complete failure with no signs of getting better.

And oh yeah, we were going to bring Harris in for a visit.

Maybe there is a reason Nate is in tight with the coaches...

Kelly deal.

Bronx33 · 03-05-2008, 07:06 PM

I heard that al davises yard keeper got a 1.2 million dollar incentive laced contract.

yavoon · 03-05-2008, 07:14 PM

I'd have to know which contracts had funny money in them.

vancejohnson82 · 03-05-2008, 09:07 PM

Interestingly enough, I think the Berrian contract is right up there

the guy is a #3 WR on about 80% of NFL teams and he pulls in a contract like that....cmon

but Kwame Harris takes it I think...the pop-up blocker on my computer has done more to deserve that money

Kwame Harris for one... his deal is a 1 year 3 million dollar deal with playing time incentives and crap, the rest is all bull****.

Javon Walker

6 Million SB

1st and 2nd year salaries of 5 Million... the rest is all bull****.

Reports are that 30 million of TK's contract are in the last 5 years.

Which leaves 20 million in the first 2... probably something like 8 million SB and base salaries of 6 million the first 2 years. But I haven't seen a breakdown anywhere.

Killericon · 03-05-2008, 09:48 PM

Kelly, but it's close.

you were destroying Kwame in that other thread

Northman · 03-06-2008, 05:12 AM

I think Kelly is way out there. Javon is 50/50 at this point.

jmz313 · 03-06-2008, 09:52 AM

Javon with his knee has to take the cake. Never thought anyone would exceed his denver contract at this point. I think Calvin Pace's deal was pretty silly as well. Solid player, yes but, 22 million for a solid LB

??

Crushaholic · 03-06-2008, 10:20 AM

all of the above...

Just to play nice, I'll mention Gibril Wilson. That's way too much money for a safety.

Mountain Bronco · 03-06-2008, 12:38 PM

Kelly, highest paid DT in the history of the NFL. You have to be kidding me.

the Walker deal, how can you give a receiver 6 years and 16 guaranteed, let alone someone with walker's injury history

At least Walker has shown he can play at an elite level when healthy. Although mind blowing why you pay Walker Moss type money when he's damaged goods, what the hell has Kelley ever proved to anyone? Oh that's right. Nothing.
