The league announces them in the Spring after reviewing total salaries for the previous year and determining who the top five and ten were. Right now those are incomplete as they can yet include additional money like bonuses earned or a pro-rated signing bonus for any player signed to an extension up until the end of December. Sometimes (usually) the figures go up from year to year, but sometimes they go down as the contract status of the players who comprise the top ten fluctuates. This year CB was down substantially to $5.9M
These were the franchise (top 5) figures for this year:
Quarterback $8.8 million
Defensive End $8,332,000
Linebacker $7,169,000
Offensive Line $6.99 million
Wide Receiver $6,172,000
Running Back $6,085,000
Cornerback $5.9 million
Defensive Tackle $5,656,000
Safety $4.1 million
Tight End $3,327,000
Kicker/Punter $2.5 million
Thanks, Mo. Wrote this before you straightened me out in the other thread.
Could we trade a player between seasons end and March? I know there's an exclusive negotiating period before FA hits in March, right?
I"m pretty good with business if it's my house, job, or business.
Otherwise I depend on Miguel, you and others. Appreciated.
One of the continual comments I get from non believing, heathen,rotten bastard, scumbag, non-fans is how cheap Bob Kraft is or how they do not spend to the limit, or how Brady is underpaid. It is always great to go to this page to show them and refute their arguments, they are usually humbled.
I really appreciate having this info readily available.
If you really enjoy the page as I do, consider nominating and supporting Miguel for Fan of the Year. Also note that he has donated many of his season ticket seats to the Bread of Life food pantry charity. What better fan representative could the Patriots have?
And no, I am not trying to have a man-boy thingy going with Miguel

Someone posted the FOTY nomination link here last year. If memory is correct, it will appear at patriots.com later this month.
I believe that was someone other than Miguel who was campaigning for it as he does every year. Either that or whoever posted it suggesting Miguel would be a worthy recipient had it hijacked by that unabashed campaigner pleading his case, complete with medical history hinting his time to be so honored was running out. And as usual the whole situation deteriorated into a pissing contest that pitted Miguel's supporters against someone desperate for the attention that Miguel more appropriately deserved IMO. And in the end neither won.
Maybe once the server issues are finally all worked out, Ian would consider instituting an MVP (Most Valuable Poster) award for this site to bestow annually. We know it would cause ructions, but when doesn't he, but it would be a nice touch if one or more bad apples weren't allowed to poison the endeavor by turning it into a pissing match.
