Lou_Dog Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 Just wondering if anyone else heard it. He was on ESPN earlier today and they were talking about Fitzs new contract and he said if that is the new going rate for bigname WRs then he deserves more money. I couldnt tell if he was being serious or not because he was smiling while he was saying it. Either way, I really hope he doesnt start bitching about how much he makes.

bossFALCON™ Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 going off of production over the last 4 years he does deserve it, but he needs to wait at least another 2 years before talking another extension. he's only in the 3rd year of a 6 year deal.

Peyton Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 Yeah he was just kidding but he is underpaid. The price of getting his deal a year early. I am sure he doesn't mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dem Birds Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 Roddy's serious but he's joking at the same time. He's overall a better player than Fitzgerald, in my opinion, Fitz got paid that much because it's Arizona and they have to overpay lol.

Also, fitz didnt have a qb last season at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
