I'm not exactly sure why, but I'd guess it has to do with their images as team guys. Also, they have longer careers than any other position, with top QB's often playing deep into their 30's. This allows for more chances to cash in with big contracts, and makes holding out for the big payday unnessecary.I do not think he is the type of guy to hold out either but I could def see the FO reworking or tweaking that deal.
Regardless of where Dalton's contract currently ranks (I wouldn't mind seeing a link just out of curiosity), it's more than enough to keep him content for a few seasons, especially if he wins 1-2 playoff games. Again, QB's don't hold out. It's a bad look. He'll cash in again soon enough, and the market will only get bigger and bigger. It'd probably pay to wait anyway.
