What about raising vet minimum? It's supposed to raise a little bit in 2025 but still under 1 mil. What if they raised it to like 3m? Could help curve the out of control contracts a bit at least. Could raise practice squad salary as well.

Yup.Didn't say anything about it being likely they would get more. Only commenting on their approach. Which has been faulty for some time, or perhaps more accurately they should have been looking out for the average player a bit more as this trend has gotten worse and worse.
I didn't say to limit only what a QB could make. Obviously this is something the union needs to think through. I agree it would need to be all positions. And that should be something in the interest of most of the players, who constitute most of the union.Ok, so let’s say you limit the amount a QB can make. That money is then gonna go to the next elite position like WR, edge or LOT. You still have the same problem. A handful of super important guys making the money.
You’d basically need to have a set max percentage for ALL positions. I just don’t see it happening.
Cowboys Follies is always enjoyable entertainment.LMAO. I love this. Now the cowboys are going to have to match or top 55mill
Stafford is a fucking stud
Especially if you're already paying a boatload of $ to your QB. A $55M QB cant win shit on IR.Got to pay your OL
Let them pay big bucks for these quarterbacks if that's what they want to do.
As the tweet points out, spending all that money on a QB is not a sure fire path to build a winning franchise. In fact it can backfire. As my wife reminds me, I'm just a fool on a couch, but if I were building a team, I'd spend the money on a strong OL and draft a mid-round QB every year. One of these mid-round QBs is bound to stick with protection from a good OL and by extension a good run game.
Of course who wouldn't want a Mahomes or Stafford, but as it stands QBs are way over-paid. A well paid QB can be an albatross. Teams just have to find more efficient and cost effective ways to win. Let the market sort it out.
