Quarterback Ben Roethlisberger just signed an 8-year $102 million contract with the Pittsburgh Steelers. Now, I know that the numbers attached to NFL contracts are essentially meaningless, but wow, $102 million for Roethlisberger? Would any other team in the NFL have offered him half of that?
I'm a strong believer that you can't put a price on having a reliable quarterback, but Roethlisberger is hardly a star (despite having won a Superbowl). This mega-contract has the highest boondoggle potential since Mike Vick's $100 million contract.
