Jennings is worth 8 mil a year. The market has become that. I think Jennings is a top ten receiver who is going to get better. With the cap GB has, they should frontload a lot of that money too. His salary cap figure should rise to probably No. 2 or No. 3 on the team behind Aaron Rodgers.

LOL.. I said it is debatable whether he is a top 10 receiver.. I can make the argument again if you would like.. he is not a lock IMO of a top 10 receiver in the league today.. sorry.. just the way I see it.. fringe of the top ten to just making it.. but at 8 million making more than a lot of them in the top 10..

I think Jennings WILL be a top 10 WR in 2009.

Heres another video about contract stuff etc.

Always enjoy seeing him talk.

I know I could not name 10 guys I would trade him for especially when you consider he is on the inclining side of the chart in terms of age and experience vs. some who have been great but may not be doing it three or four years down the road.

I would rather have Jennings right now for the next several years than almost anybody really. Some of those top receivers are nearing the time they will start following the path of a Marvin Harrison with each year producing less whereas this guy will only get better.

I am also sure that is a big part of the thinking in this contract as well.

There are only three receivers I would take over Jennings.

Andre Johnson
Larry Fitzgerald
Calvin Johnson

This is not only based on talent but also age and character.

We think long term, those who are saying there is 10 better than Jennings. I think they are thinking if they had to suit them up tomorrow.
