A Miguel ReTweet: Highest paid players by position.

It's a BSPN link.



Quarterback

Someone missing? Yup. Super Bowl MVP Tom Brady's perennially team-friendly contract ranks No. 22 on this list. His current deal with the Patriots, which expires in 2019, included $30 million in guarantees and averages $15 million per year in this reckoning. The other missing name here is the Falcons' Matt Ryan, whose APY ($20.75M) falls just $10,000 short of Newton's.

The top paid Patriots by position are:

TE's:
4th - Rob Gronkowski
9th - Dwayne Allen

LB's: (No Pats but Hightower is noted)

Most of this list is composed of 3-4 outside linebackers, who are pass-rushers and thus the most valuable.

Dont'a Hightower was the best player at this position to hit free agency, and he wound up returning to the Patriots at an APY of $8.875 million.

Cornerbacks
7th - Stephen Gillmore

Safeties
6th- Devin McCourty

Specialists
1st - Stephen Gostkowski

which QB has the richest wife?

EDIT: which NFL player has the richest wife

EDIT AGAIN: can any 10 NFL wives combine to equal the richest wife in the NFL?

Jets - 1
Ravens - 3
Broncos - 1
Colts - 1
Steelers - 4

That can't be right, because everyone knows the Pats don't pay players well.
