Does making it to the Super Bowl magically make previously average players super stars? Moreover does it cause statistical contract incentives to be reached as if a fairy waved a magic wand? Come on.....
What ever. Find all the negative things you want to, and embellish them as much as you want.
Making the Super bowl does NOT make an average player a super star. But it does tell you that the current team, and the talent on the team is good enough to make it to a Super Bowl.
Incetives reached are incentives earned. I guess we have not learned lesson we should have from the Larry Fitzgerald situation from last year.
Why is it that Rolle hitting incentives is a bad thing ? I find it ludicris to bash our GM for a player performing in a way that he hits incentives. It says the player is producing. It says the player has found a way to be productive.
Rolle was a Top 10 pick, and got paid top ten money, and hit his top ten incentives on that contract. That all equals out to being expensive.
And please remember all these complaints about contracts, incentives, and money when camp rolls around and we are complaining to the high heavens about getting our draft picks signed in time.
How quickly "Just get him into camp" becomes "we paid too much".
I also like the "Super Star" comment. So, you want a FS that plays better than Rolle for less money ? Come on.......
The whole point of the article/blog this number comes from is that the Cardinals are planning to re-sign Rolle, and take that hugh cap number and lower it, AND extend his contract.
What next? Team going 2-14 next year?
