Default Joe Flacco to become Highest Paid Player in NFL
Thought this was a joke at first. The Ravens are idiots.

Quote:
Joe Flacco and the Baltimore Ravens have agreed to a six-year, $120.6 million contract that will make the quarterback the highest-paid player in NFL history, a source familiar with the deal told ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter on Friday.

The two sides will work on the contract language this weekend, and Flacco is expected to sign the deal Monday in Baltimore, sources told ESPN senior NFL analyst Chris Mortensen.

Ravens general manager Ozzie Newsome said the sides have settled on the parameters of the deal, but still have some language and details to work out.

Drew Brees is currently the highest paid player in the NFL, averaging $20 million per year.

Flacco played out his rookie contract this past season for $6.76 million. Now, based on the $120.6 million deal, he will make an average of $168,908 each day of the regular season for the next six years.

Good for Flacco! He saw an opportunity and the Ravens caved. Joe has to be pretty ballsy to try for that figure but you never get what you don't ask for, right?

How is this moronic or laughable? Over the last 4 years he has the best record for a starting quarterback in the NFL. Not to mention his playoff record. Also, he has taken the Ravens to the playoffs every year he has been in the league.

I hope you haven't just come out the woodshed on these high payed player salaries. Who's worth what 90% of these all stars are worth? IMO no ones worth more than a mil a year.

The market speaks though and fans are willing to spend the money for the seats and merchandise.

Your post contradicts itself.

Anyone is worth whatever the market determines they're worth, even if ts more than a million.

Market worth and how fairly jobs pay are 2 different things though. I think that's what people are referring to here.

I don't agree with the price but we have Reed, Kruger, Ellerbe and more to focus on.

168,000 a day is insane. Most people work 4-5 years to get to that number.

No one is worth that kind of money but if the owners keep giving it to them it will only keep going up. I think the Falcons are about to give Ryan a bunch of money too and he has no where near the credentials that Flacco has.
