I think it just shows you that there's a difference between successful QB and great QB. The Ravens need to tread carefully when doing the new Flacco deal, because he views himself in the elite Brady/Manning class, when really there are at least 10 QBs almost all people would take ahead of him. A deal like Matt Cassel's (6yrs, $60 m) should be their goal, cause Joe Flacco is not worth $15m+ a season. A deal like that could devastate them long term, just like the Sanchez/Schaub/Fitzpatrick deals. Pay for the quarterback you're getting, not the QB you hope to get.
