Great contract is top 5% of a particular sport. We are taking about Aaron Rodgers, Kevin Durant money. Good Contract is somebody like Jamal Charles...around 7 mil/year which is still plenty to give a good life 5x. But with less money, you're called a champion the rest of your life. Is it worth it?


This is really a poor example

Jamal Charles is making top 5 runningback money (or was), it's not feasible for him to make top 5 NFL money because that's not the market of his position

In this example you're basically asking me if is rather be a QB or a RB which obviously I'd pick QB

I wasn't using position as an example. I was using dollar figures. Jamal Charles is not top 5% in the NFL. Maybe I should've use a basketball player like Pao Gasol as an example.
