You've paid a guy $10 million or more to "learn". You have to extend him at that point, so you're committed to $26 million plus before he's even started a game in the NFL.
That sounds reeruned, not like a "bargain".

Before the new CBA, teams had to commit over double that JUST IN THEIR SIGNING BONUS for first overall picks.
How much did Aaron Rodgers get from GB before be played a down?
How about Eli?
Carson Palmer?
You get a rookie first round qb for 5 years at less than 30 million now...the reward far outweighs the risk in this scenario.
