Sam got both the high draft pick contract and even after being very ok at best, he still got overpaid in a few subsequent contracts. Shouts to Minnesota for being in on a few of those contracts too!


I guess what makes Cousins especially unique is that he is generally as healthy as he is average - which is to say VERY. Still somehow he gets paid.
