So last night Mark Sanchez signed a contract extension last night. They agreed to pay him another $20 million in guaranteed money. Michele Beadle tweeted today that giving Sanchez an extension is like outbidding yourself in an eBay auction. That is a perfect comparison.

There are a lot of people out there that complain about the Titans being cheap. The next time you are about to type that, ask yourself if you would rather be a fan of a team that gives a terrible quarterback a huge raise.

In other news, Peyton Manning has finished his visit with the Denver Broncos. He is rumored to be meeting with the Arizona Cardinals tonight. Larry Fitzgerald should be the first pick in every single fantasy football draft next season if he has a healthy Peyton Manning as his quarterback.

It was reported the other day that there are 12 teams that inquired about Manning, but he apparently does not have any more visits lined up at this point.
