I don't know what paucity means. Here's an article on Superbowl winning quarterbacks
https://overthecap.com/super-bowl-ti...-quarterbacks/. Hint: it hasn't paid off to have a QB, any QB eat up a lot of salary. The article is from before the Superbowl last year but I don't think it changes much because of the voodoo math involved with TB12s contract and obviously Foles' backup contract this year.
Steve Young's salary in '94, the first year of the salary cap, was the highest percentage at 13.1%. Next was Eli Manning at 11.7%, Peyton Manning at 10.4% and Brett Favre at 10.2%. Those are the only 4 that were more than 10% of their teams salary. Going by that 13.1% number with the cap expected to be $178 mil, that puts the number at $23.32 mil for next year, $17.80 is obviously 10%.
So no it's not just teams with GMs who've made horrible overreaction QB contracts like Alex Smith, Derek Carr, Joe Flacco and whoever backs up a Brinks truck for Kirk Cousins.
