Jake Long will no doubt cost even more being the superior LT and the fact his deal probably won't be until next year.
Jake is going to be a very very rich man. $30 million when he first signed and he could crack $50 million come next season to extend his contract.
At this rate he'll retire owning the team ;p

PFF ranks Thomas as only the 5th best LT last season, fwiw.
1. Andrew Whitworth 24.6
2. Jake Long 24.3
3. Doug Free 17.9
4. D'Brickashaw Ferguson 17.4
5. Joe Thomas 15.7 -
For the curious here's the pass efficiency for the last 3 years. http://www.profootballfocus.com/blo...r-pass-blocking-efficiency-offensive-linemen/
Honestly Colon topping that list surprised me, but it goes to show Jake is consistently top tier.
By the way anyone see the guards list. Incognito...#11...who woulda thunk it? -

Who cares? Pay the man, and pay him a crapload. He is worth it. The only offensive linemen that I would consider getting a jersey of.
-
That being said....Long has been the best player on are team and is best 1 or 2 at his position....he earned a big contract. -
Pack: rodgers, Jennings, Woodson, Matthews, plus other good yound guys like Shields, BJ Raji, etc.
Those two teams are loaded. And they have top 5 or 6 QB's. -
2.Rodgers
3.Rivers
4.Brees
5.Brady
6.Shaub
Who would you bump for Ben? -
Don't get me wrong, Ben is a good QB, but out of the other Super Bowl winning QB's on my list, Ben's had the most help, IMO.
As for Schaub, I really think he's got all the talent and intangibles but just happens to play on a team with a crappy defense. And even Marino couldn't win the big one with a crappy defense. -

Seriously, if we could pick any of them to be an instant Dolphin, I'd probably put him 3rd after Rodgers and Rivers, due to age.
