[QUOTE="Dantés, post: 896601, member: 12283"] Here's another angle to this. In the last 15 years, QB salaries have been on the rise, not just in terms of total value, but also in terms of percentage of the cap. For example, in 2009, Philip Rivers signed a deal that averaged 15.3M, and the cap was 123M. So he accounted for just over 12% of the cap. In 2019, Goff signed a deal that averaged 33.5M, and the cap was 188M. So he counted for almost 18% of the cap in that first season. As QB's on second contracts account for more and more of the cap, you really need them to be special if they're going to return value. A guy on Jared Goff or Kirk Cousin's level eating 18% of your total cap, even when they're playing well, are hard to win championships with. The guys with elite traits offer the ceiling of being special, and the special guys are the ones who give you the best return on investment. [/QUOTE]
