A million over ten years or whatever when they already have a gazillion dollars right out of college. Then again I've never even sniffed the kind of money they get paid as a 7th round pick bench warmer much less a top player
Even the practice squad..
I gotta tell you that if I was paid 6k per week I'd be shitting in high cotton..
The money is mind boggling to me..I survive on $733 a month from social security.. and feel pretty good about that..
The thing is, even though they have millions of dollars, an extra million is still a million. It's a pay raise.
If you were making $6 million in one place but got an offer for $8 million, would you take it?
Also, Iloka only made over $2 million his first 4 years here. He's obe of the best young safeties, so he's definitely in store for a big paycheck.
