    He had three years left on his deal. That's a great lesson for players who want to get paid like the best at their positions - play like you belong in that group, play hurt, and win the Super Bowl.

    Droughns and Madison restructured and took cuts. McQuarters is back. Plax got his deal. All of this is possible because Strahan left $9M on the table and Shockey is elsewhere.

    I'd forgotten that top level wide receivers were capable of being so professional.
