I think this is fair compensation to play a "game" for 6 months of the year. Nothing is stopping these guys from getting an off season job and bringing in another $20-40,000 to their family. Anyone getting paid over $2 million max to play any sport or game is ludicrous. Shows how messed up our society is.
Those salary numbers would bankrupt the league in about a week. Team payroll would probably quadruple instantly.

Star QBs make about $500k. Rookies make about $40k.
