There has been quite a bit of discussion about how that Archuletta is paid more than any safety in the history of man (shout out to D'Boyz) and how we overpaid for him because he isn't the greatest safety since the introduction of the helmet, yada, yada yada.

But if you look at his deal, $20 mill of his $32 mill deal is salary that comes in 2K9 through 2k12. That is money which is not guaranteed and he is not going to see.

He received an SB of $10 mil. By comparison, ST received $11.675 mil in bonus money on a deal he signed two years ago.

If it isn't guaranteed, it isn't real. Therefore, ST is more highly paid than Archuletta.

Yes, Archuletta may have the biggest CONTRACT for a safety in history, but he is nowhere close to being the highest PAID safety in history.

No, I don't expect any Cowboys fan to be able to grasp these concepts.
