Why are we wasting money on him?

Well they do need a back up QB, and he has been to two Probowls in the last 4 or 5 years, plus his best years were with Saunders. My only question is the length of the contract and roughly 3 million a year, that seems a little steep. But they can just cut him if he loses his ability next year or the year after.

I agree with nfrill, the terms of the contract seem a little long. For a player that has been knocked out of the past two season with head issues, this seems a little steep. However, there really wasn't much else out there.

His contract is what is making me scratch my head but i'm guessing we are expecting bulger to get hurt again?
