you eventually have to pay the piper. You can't keep giving these older players these types of deals. randel el is 29 and if that extension kicks in through 2015, he'll be like 35 or so making pretty damn good money for a guy that hasn't produced in his peek years. Same goes for Carter. This is why we dont have quality depth, why we have aging players making too much money to cut. You have to get rid of these guys when there best days are behind them, like the Eagles, Patriots seem to do and fill the spots with young guys. Its just the same old crap from the Front Office.
