I read that he's god a bad foot - a break or a stress fracture, I think - so that might explain things.

I think Jerry Jones is betting on there being a much different situation in terms of the CBA and profit-sharing with smaller market teams in 2011. If he's right then it could be a good move, but if not...very bad. I just hope the Pats can somehow lock up Vince Wilfork. I for one, would be very bummed to see him go.

While I mostly agree, plenty of teams commit more money to single players. For example, with the inflation in the cap the last couple years, the 9M/yr Seymour got is probably a higher percentage of the cap. The cap was 94.5M when Seymour's contract was negotiated (9/94.5=9.5%, vs 13M/129 = 10.0%), so, besides the years, Ware's contract isn't really much more than Seymours. The years are of course important.

All of this shouldn't be surprising though, as there are significantly more 3-4 teams right now than when Seymour resigned, and Ware would probably play better as a traditional 4-3 DE than Seymour, which also ups his value.


I mean, this is nowhere near as bad as Nnamdi A's contract(15m PER), or a high first round QB's contract.

It will be interesting to see how Seymour tries to play this in his negotiations.

The thing is that they've also got 60 million wrapped up in Romo and 45 million wrapped up in Williams (what a stupid contract). Add it up and you've got lots of budget players filling out the rest of the roster. That doesn't add up to championships.

Of the three, though, Ware is the most valuable.

Right, but thats pretty much the status quo in the NFL. Romo makes $11M. Williams makes $9M a year. Ware makes $13M a year.


As opposed to Moss, Brady, and Seymour (going into this year) Making 9.5, 15, and 9.5. Most teams are heavy at the top like this.
