Why is Jordan Gross our highest paid player?

[King Taharqa]

I apologize, why is Jordan Gross our 2nd higghest paid player on our team? Hes making 11 mill this year right?

[SwagManCam]

Because Cam is still on his rookie contract. Cam will be the highest paid player on the roster in a couple of years. If he gets what he's worth, he'll be the highest paid in the league. Pay That Man!

[PhillyB]

because when he signed that contract he was a top three left tackle in the league, and an outstanding leader to boot. you pay guys like that.

Because he's one of the best left tackles in the game and that's how they get paid. There's only 2 possibilities here, you are ill informed or your guilty of what you have been accused of several times before.

Charles Johnson is our highest paid player.

He was just looking at 2012 salaries.

Gross is the highest paid player for 2012 at 8 million

Then

Gamble

Williams

Johnson

Edwards

Now that you have the question right, and I don't have time to look them all up, but it wouldn't surprise me to find out that Gamble after pro rations is not making about the same as Gross as well.

He is a good (once great) Tackle in the NFL.

He is reliable and healthy.

He is a leader that has never been in trouble.

Steve Smith

Is a good/great WR in the NFL.

He is 2 years older playing a position that does not normally have the longevity that Tackles do.

He is a leader that has had some trouble in the past.

Honestly it's just a position thing.

Salaries maybe but that's not really the end of the story when it comes to NFL contracts.

[Ezell704]

King Taqahara race baits more then Al Sharpton and the good revrend combined... I honestly dont get what he gets out of it?

[jtnc]

Btw, Steve has been paid over 70 million during his tenure here.

Bonus money doesn't skew it much....Gross still the highest paid in 2012 at 11.5 with bonus money factored in.

Salary and bonus for 2012

Gross

Then

CJ

Gamble

Williams

I don't get it either... Maybe he's an alt of some white dude trying to troll people.

[Floppin]

Because he was a top 3 tackle when he got paid, and left tackle being one of the top three paid positions in the NFL...well you understand. There's also the fact that most of our up and coming "stars" are still in rookie contracts. Smith was paid well by league standards when he got his mid-career long contract and he didn't hold out for more money when receivers started getting bigger pay days, because he's not a toolbag like a lot of NFL players. He didn't get paid like a top three WR on his recent deal because it's the end of his career and he was coming off of his worst year ever.

Or it could be because Gross is white??!?!?!? That's gotta be it.

[Ezell704]

Maybe... He comes to the Bobcats planet boards almost solely to defend Robert Johnson (formor Bobcats owner-BET CEO).

He seriously has to be a troll i cant imagine someone honestly thinks every white person is in some grand conspiricy to keep the black man down in carolina sports lol
