Yeah he is a prime example of why the revised rookie contract structure was a good idea.

Still think they need to find a middle ground.

Some young guys that break out early get absolutely screwed with these contracts. I understand they were making too much money, but they are forced into long term contracts that pay them a quarter of their value with noway out.

Especially running backs. They only really have until 30 to make money, 4 year contract making scraps...then that team could franchise you twice and you won't hit the open market until you're 28 and teams aren't looking to pay you much.
