Even if there wasn't a cap it wouldn't matter when it comes to Lee Smith. He's an undisciplined tight end who is an above average blocker and terrible at everything else. He gets a lot of penalties too. Brandon Spikes was only able to get a one year deal for almost the same amount of money. Spikes is an elite run stopper and a linebacker is so much more important then a blocking tight end who couldn't catch a cold let alone a football. Anyway I'm done talking about Lee Smith. Just can't believe anyone could actually defend or try to justify him getting 3 mil a season.
1) Undisciplined? How do you figure?
2) Average blocker? I thought he's one of the best in the game?
3) Terrible at everything else I'll give you, though I think that's debatable what you define "everything else" as
As for the spikes comparison, that's a good one. They're both one-dimensional players that are very good at the one thing they do. Ironically enough, they're exact foils of each other in that one thing they do well.
