As example,  tight end Bubba Franks just received 6 million dollars reporting bonus for signing his contract.  The Packers are rewarding Mike Sherman for his five year coaching record of 53-27 which put him up there as 4th best Head coach in Packer history and since 1970 only Chuck Knox, Joe Gibbs, and Mike Ditka had better records in their first five seasons.  None of those  coaches before 1993  had to contend with competitve balance (free agency and salary cap) as present day NFL coaches like Mike Sherman have to. .  The NFL is by far the number 1 Pro sport in the world and as such, NFL  takes in huge revenues and it reflects in the  compensation  paid the players, as well as the coaches in NFL.</p></blockquote><p></p>
