Funny how Campbell's contract is worth more than Rogers'. I know he's a QB and all, but still he went 16 picks behind Jason.

And CBs are definitely not underpaid in the NFL, which has been a relatively well-known fact in recent years (given rule changes, publicity of players like Champ, etc.)

Change the word "camp" to "the season," then I'll be happy.

I think's Campbells has incentives tied into it incase he becomes the starter, which would make him get paid more than Rogers.

Yeah, I figured that was it. They love to report those big numbers though. I wonder how these contracts compare at the base salary and bonuses.

Carlos Rogers, agreed to a five-year, $17.45 million deal Jason Campbell signed a five-year, $7.5 million contract.

Campbell's deal includes $5.3 million in bonus money and could be worth nearly $24 million if all incentives are met.
Rodger's deal includes $11.26 million in guaranteed money

Probably because he is hurt right now. He just got hurt at the wrong time, and hopefully it is just a freak accident and won't continue throughout his career.

If he is there he won't be able to do much being bound by that protective boot right?

I was listening to NFL Radio and they were laughing at Carlos Rogers' deal.

All of the draft picks above him have like $30 million contracts, and the word is that Pac Man Jones (pick 7) is going to get $30 million, and Rogers ($17.45 million) was pick 9. So that leave Antrel Rolle stuck in between a huge gap as he was picked 8 and is a corner back also.

Did Carlos get a "Sean Taylor Deal" too? Hope he doesn't fire his agent, etc....

I don't get why there was such a huge drop off for Rogers.

Thought we overpaid people...

Now we make laughable contracts...

With the media, were darned if we do and darned if we don't...
