Manning is going to get 20M per, and Brady is looking for a similar contract so McNabb is going to want a huge deal as well.
The way I see it Manning got an over priced contract. I would expect his next contract to be lower not just because he's getting older. Just like JC is good but not McNabb level, I'd say McNabb is good but not Manning level.

The money may not be an issue it might be how long the contract is for.
