Top 10 OVERPAID Players
 
PNM just started a thread on Fox Sports' Top 10 Underpaid Players. I clicked on the link to the top 10 Overpaid and found it even more interesting but didn't want to hijack his thread, so I thought I'd just start a new one.

Here's the link.

Most pleasing inclusion? Number eight. Eli Manning!!! "It’s pretty rare to list a Super Bowl MVP – didn’t the Giants’ D-linemen really deserve the award? – in this category, but it’s tough to get over his $97.5 million extension...Yes, he’s good. But does he..."

Another fun one is Jay Cutler

Also, Matt is on it, but I think it's unfair until he has another year to prove himself.

It made sense for former Pats exec Scott Pioli to bring Matt Cassel to Kansas City, but the price was steep, another $15 million this year. Cassel, who played collected big bucks because the Pats had to franchise him to find a trading partner.
They say that he was playing on the franchise numbers, when he signed a 6 year contract before the season!

Interesting :)

Millions of cash for 8 months work for almost all players in the league - THEY ARE ALL OVERPAID IMO

I think when all is said and done, Cassel will be worth what KC invested in him. It's hard to be a good QB when your OL is friggin awful.

Tommy Kelly got paid more than Antonio Smith, but had less production. Surprised not to see him on there.

I still can't believe what the Bears gave up for Peppers. He's an extremely good pass rusher but he's a liability against the run. As long as their management is in place and Cutler is the quarterback, that organization isn't going anywhere. Nice to see Eli on there as well. The guy got an extension based on lobbing up a prayer across midfield.
