With the rising cost of quarterbacks, the Falcoholic has spent months (if not nearly a year) telling readers that Matt Ryan should sign for $30 million per year, average. Like here. And way back in August here. It was going to happen, and quarterbacks cost a lot because you can’t easily replace them. They are also unequivocally the most important player on the entire team, and there is no competition.
Yes, it’s expensive. No, it doesn’t cripple the team, assuming you didn’t sign Joe Flacco to one of the league’s top contracts.
