I am not saying Chad Henne is better than any of these quarterbacks, though I hope he will be one day. I am just looking at the numbers. It is kind of incredible that Eli Manning was payed three quarters of a million dollars for every touchdown he threw.
If you would like me to analyze the numbers for another QB not listed here you can either comment on this post asking or feel free to email me at dolphinshout@yahoo.com.
I cannot guarantee that I will be able to do it, but I will try my best.

Chad Henne Is An Incredible Value For The Miami Dolphins
I saw an article recently that said JaMarcuss Russell was being paid $100,000 per completion when you take his total salary and divide it by how many completions he had. That is an absolutely horrible amount of money to be paying a player that is that bad.
Thankfully Miami Dolphins fans, we don't have to worry about that. Chad Henne gets paid a lot less, and still gets a lot of completions.
According to msn.foxsports.com Chad Henne's salary is $950,340. You can probably guess that he is payed less than Russell per completion because you know he got more than 9.5 completions as a starter last year.
In the 2009-2010 season Henne had 274 completions. If you do the math it comes out to $3,468 per completion.
That may seem like a lot, but not for an NFL quarterback.
To put that into perspective lets compare Henne's salary and completions to New York Jets quarterback Mark Sanchez.
According to nyjetscap.com, Sanchez's salary was $2,545,000. Also, the site shows his future salaries, and they are all $8 million or higher for the rest of Sanchez's contract. So, as you can see, Sanchez is and will be a very generously payed athlete.
Sanchez had 196 completions in 2009-2010. When you divide $2,545,000 by 196 completions you get $12,984. That is almost four times what Henne was paid per completion.
Now, Chad Henne's salary is likely to go up. The better he performs, the more he will get paid. I am hoping Henne will have a break out season next year which would most likely raise his salary by a lot, but we will see what happens.
As long as he is better than his Jets counterpart, I am happy. Sorry New York, it just seems like the Dolphins will always be better than you.
