Since the NFL's FA has begun and discussions about contracts are beginning to bloom (plus there's still some time to kill before the sim), I thought it'd be interesting to take a look at our league's top paid players. Going into 2013 here were out top 20 highest paid athletes (top 21 due to some ties) POS NAME CAP Team 1 FS Jackson 33 DAL 2 FS Reed 28 BAL 2 WR Wayne 28 ARI 2 WR White 28 ATL 2 TE Witten 28 STL 6 WR Welker 27 NE 7 TE Clark 26 PIT 7 LG Nicks 26 NO 9 OLB Harrison 25 PIT 10 CB Samuel 24 PHI 10 OLB Suggs 24 BAL 12 DT Seymour 23 OAK 13 QB Brady 22 NE 13 TE Gates 22 SD 13 QB Manning 22 KC 13 CB Revis 22 NYJ 13 QB Rodgers 22 GB 18 RE Abraham 21 IND 18 WR Jackson 21 PHI 18 WR Marshall 21 NYG 18 OLB Spencer 21 DAL Going into 2014 & after the Shaun Phillips Sweepstakes here are our top 20, ranked by cap, then years to break ties POS Name Cap yrs Team 1 OLB Phillips 47 5 IND 2 FS Jackson 33 2 DAL 3 LT Thomas 28 7 CLE 4 WR White 28 4 BUF 5 FS Reed 28 4 BAL 6 WR Wayne 28 4 ARI 7 TE Witten 28 3 STL 8 WR Welker 27 1 NE 9 LG Nicks 26 5 NO 10 TE Clark 26 3 PIT 11 DT Jenkins 26 3 DAL 12 CB Woodson 25 5 STL 13 OLB Harrison 25 3 PIT 14 OLB Suggs 24 4 BAL 15 WR Rice 24 2 MIN 16 CB Samuel 24 1 PHI 17 FS Rhodes 23 6 IND 18 WR Maclin 23 5 PHI 19 LG Steinbach 23 4 CLE 20 LT Roos 23 4 OAK (please forgive me if I missed a player of high cap)

Tanard Jackson has been the high man in the league pretty much every season since we started.

good to see Rodgers is no longer a top 20 highest paid player after this seasons free agency

Yeah all QBs slid out of the top 20 , & wasn't Tanard Jackson the one worthy FA before anything actually got started?
