    Didn't Tannebaum always handle the contracts?

    Bradway was in charge and made the decision to draft him at #4, so the responsibility is his, but if we're saying he was paid too much for a #4 pick, than Tannebaum deserves blame for that.

    I'm not saying that's the case though, I don't remember how the #3 and #5 picks were paid that year.

    Andre Johnson (the #3 overall pick that year) got about $13.5M guarenteed. Terrance Newman (#5) got about $13M. Dewayne got more than $14M in guarentees.

    #3 Andre Johnson: 13.5 mil. signing bonus
    #4 Dewayne Robertson: 13 mil. signing bonus
    #5 Terence Newman: 13.1 mil. signing bonus

    Plus Robertson signed a 7 year deal, Johnson only a 6 year deal.
