WESTBROOK WANTS $10 MILLION PER YEAR
Posted by Mike Florio on July 22, 2008, 10:45 p.m. EDT
Question. Which NFL team has a 29-year-old running back who thinks he's worth $10 million per year? (Sorry. Watching The Office reruns tonight.)
Answer. The Eagles.
Per a league source, Brian Westbrook is looking for a new deal that pays him $30 million over the first three years.
We're told that Westbrook picked his new agent, Todd France, based on the fact that France was the only one who would guarantee that he could get Westbrook a certain level of compensation.
Per a league source, multiple other agents withdrew from the running once it became clear that Westbrook was treating the process like a hand of high-stakes Texas Hold 'Em.
It's unknown whether France committed to getting $30 million over three. All we know is that France's bid was the highest.
