I think we're all going to be seeing a lot of deals signed that make us go WTF he's not worth that much!!! That's the effect of a one-year salary cap increase of 20%. This new CBA is already having a big effect on salaries. We saw Randle El get paid about as much as we paid to Santana Moss. That's just the way the market is now. It will probably take some getting used to, for all of us.

The question I wonder about is how will players with existing contracts feel about these new guys getting such big money. I can see a lot of them beginning to pursue raises. Luckily, the Skins built big time salary increases for 2006 into the contracts of the current players. So our players will probably be pretty content. Others around the league could have problems though, should be an interesting situation to watch.
