Dawkins-from the Bronco's mouth

http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=3942161

The link above was on ESPN's website.

It says the Bronco's anounced signing Dawkins today to a 5year, 17million dollar contract. He is slated to make 9million the first 2 years; 7.2 million guarenteed. Dawkins is my favorite ATHELETE of all time, but a 5-year contract seems extreme. I am sorry to ruin everyone's day with this link, now I shall start drinking and try not to cry in my beer. Sounds like a country song.

Greatest Athlete Ever

I am glad he is getting a big payday he deserves it but five years seems very unlikely to be met and I am upset that the Eagles did not match I know it is a high number but who expects that he will fulfill those five years, he will most likely be cut after two years why wouldn’t the eagles do that he is a pro bowl player who was the defensive heart and soul. just pay him they have $48 million in cap space, it hurts, he was my personal favorite athlete of all time so good luck Dawk, will see you in canton someday and hope he retires an Eagle someday
