But sources insist the total package is closer to $14 million and that the signing bonus is roughly $2 million. Which means, first of all, Bledsoe's first-year cap hit of $2.5 million is not out of whack for a starting quarterback - plus a guy who has started 48 of his last 48 games. And, with that $2 million signing bonus, if this doesn't work out, then basically the Cowboys can erase the decision without jeopardizing their salary cap for years to come.I know some silly Green Bay Packer fans will refer to Packer/Bears/Lions/Vikings as great rivalries, but the greatest rivalry in the NFL? The Cowboys/Redskins. And, as we say every season, thank you Dan Snyder.
This is not like Washington handing Scott Brunell an $8.6 million signing bonus last year.
