I am sure Sitton is thrilled as each starting offensive lineman was very open about wanting the Packers to sign Bulaga back.

And Sitton is still the highest paid. He just shares that designation with Bulaga. Sitton still has the most guaranteed money of any of the linemen.

Are you worried Cobb's contract isn't sitting well with Jordy?

To be fair, my exposure comes far more from NBA players, but I'm willing to generalize that its same with football players too.

So, I don't think Jordy is sitting there upset about the money Randall got. I would think he is quite happy a friend of his got paid like a top player at his position. At some point, friends or someone else will make some fuss about Jordy's deal vs. Cobb's, but I'd think Jordy is secure enough to brush it off and not bother him.

I'd guess Sitton and Lang are also secure enough with their deals that Bulaga's won't bother them too much (if at all).

Professional athletes are incredibly insecure and act like children as a generalization. Always wanting something free and things because they play pro sports. To say that it doesn't matter who makes more to a pro athlete is untrue. Perhaps, some of our guys go against the overriding norm, but I doubt it.
