For the second straight year, the biggest chunk of our "Performance Based Pay" pool will go to Orlando Scandrick, who gets a check for $306,209.

Performance Based Pay is actually based on playing time, not performance. For 2009, each team got a pool of $3,422,875 that was divided up between every player who played during the season. The more you played and the less money you made from the team, the bigger your PBP bonus (there's a formula used to determine how much each player gets).

Scandrick had a cap number of just $437,490 but played 56 percent of the team's snaps on defense and 53 percent of the team's snaps on special teams for a combined playing-time percentage of 55 percent. That combination of low cap number and relatively high playing time is why he gets the biggest PBP bonus.

This money is paid by the league and is in addition to any money the player gets paid by the team.


Here's what each player on our team gets for the 2009 season --

Orlando Scandrick, $306,209
John Phillips, $231,668

LMAO, he made $726 bucks for one kickoff return.
 
so basically scandrick gets paid the least by the team for the amount of work he does thats why he gets the most. is that about right?
 
Thanks for the list.


Doug Free deserves every penny of that $186,000+ for the downfield block against the Eagles.
 
this is really one of the better pieces of the CBA. A guy like Scandrick can almost double his salary. Now, I'd like to see the formula tweaked so that guys like Romo and Adams aren't getting anything extra while minimum salary guys get more ...

So for 1 play he made $850,000 plus his little $65 bonus. Not bad.

He can use that $65 to get himself a copy of Madden NFL 2011 and put himself in the starting lineup :)
 
Very nice bonus program the league has set up to reward players based on a combined merit/need metric.

Gratz to Scandrick!!! Basically doubling his salary is awfully darn nice.
 
What a great pick. Even though he didn't have quite as good a year this year as last, he's still proven to be amazing value out of the 5th round. That "idiot GM" of ours did it again.

Where do I sign up! lol
 
Too bad it isn't based upon performance....Austin would have garnered 90% of the total. :)
 
Id like to see a chunk of the money thats taken out of the rookies salaries go to this and obviously the retired players.
 
From what I remember Scandrick was mostly chasing someone. Maybe it was the sophomore slump.

Jenkins sure didn't have it.
 
Almost $800 for 1 kick return and a wasted roster spot for about a month.

To be so lucky.

What a useless move that was.
