Draft a QB, buy him some premium toys and an aggressive defense and give him the 5 years to deliver. Once you pay the second contract, your future is limited.
The Phillies just paid $50,000,000.00 GUARANTEED for a 32 year old FADING star. If he blows his knee out in year one and never plays again they are obligated to pay him all $50,000,000.00. It is insane.
That is baseball! Where fatigue is more an issue than injury. If the NFL guaranteed contracts it would bankrupt them.
