Contract Year Players for 2010
We keep an eye out for players who are entering the final year of their contract. There is no better motivational tool in professional sports (or really any industry) than the mighty greenback. Below is a list of QBs, RBs, WRs, and TEs, who are entering the final year of their respective contracts. It's always shocking to see production come out of the wood-work from some guys because of an impending contract negotiation (duh). Please keep in mind, a number of these players are expected to ink something before the start of the season (Peyton Manning and Tom Brady to name a few -but those are two guys who don't fall into the "play hard cuz it's a contract year" anyway).
