The Madness of the Rookie Pay Scale

I'll do a story on this a little later after the draft but ESPN.com's Kevin Siefert puts together a list of the top guaranteed contracts in history. A guy who has never played a down got more than anybody ever. Over 5M more than Ben Roethlisberger's two Super Bowl rings. It's 7M more than Peyton Manning, one of the top 5 QBs of all time. Crazy.
