He wasn't in the top 10 of base salaries last year among QBs

He will be in the top five in 2013 if he doesn't restructure.
The argument from many (mostly Falcons fans) on this site is that Brees's contract somehow cripples the Saints, and that if Flacco gets a big contract (one that I do not believe he deserves, but that's the market...), the Ravens will be crippled.
I don't buy that reasoning, because other successful teams have invested similar portions of their cap in the QB position.
My point of contention is not whether the QB is worth 20 million per. Rather, it's about whether Flacco is. Because of the market and the franchise tag rules, he will get somewhere in that ballpark. I believe that the Ravens will pay that and that they will be overpaying him.
