Oh really? QB salaries keep going up, but at the time, the contracts below were very expensive, Flacco is the best comparison - an average QB paid elite money..
Joe Flacco -
$120 mil contract in 2014, $44 guaranteed, still $22 mil / year = top 4 contract currently
Andy Dalton -
$115 mil contract in 2014
Brock Osweiler - $18/mil, $37 guaranteed (8th most guaranteed money in history)
Ryan Tannehil - $19.2 mil/yaer
Colin Kaepernick $126 million, avg $21/yr
Jay Cutler $126 million, avg 18/year
