    CJ just wrapped up 16 games in the winter 'touch' football leage.
    He averaged 3.9ypc

    Yeah he was overpaid the last couple of years, but let's not forget he was drastically underpaid his first couple of years. Dude gave us 2500 yards on $500k. It all evened out at the end.

    Funny how people never have a problem with drastically under paying players. I thought it was all about the contract matching on field performance or does that only matter when the player is under performing?

    Well, that's why he did get paid... but his performance dropped. Now he's overpaid.

    So... underpaid, then paid properly for past service and future service, but that service declined... now he's overpaid. Had the service continued, it'd be much easier to swallow.

    I think most people were in agreement that CJ was underpaid those first few years. But that's just the nature of the business. A couple years of production which surpasses actual pay is a team's reward for hitting on a draft pick. A player needs to do it consistently for a few seasons before getting the big payday. You can't go around redoing deals after only one or two years in the league. That would lead to too many bad contracts.

    NFL should adopt a system that pays for play. Nobody gets paid til after the season.
