Here is a list of all players that won a Super Bowl with a salary cap hit of $10+ million. There have been 18 of them so far. In the 2018 season, there are 130 players with cap hits of $10+ million (19 QB, 20 WR, TE2, OL 30, 27 DL, 11 LB, 21 DB). There are no RB's with a cap charge that high this season.
Tom Brady, QB, NE, 2018 - $22M
Peyton Manning, QB, DEN, 2015 - $17.5M
Tom Brady, QB, NE, 2014 - $14.8M
Eli Manning, QB, NYG, 2011 - $14.1M
Tom Brady, QB, NE, 2016 - $13.7M
Demaryius Thomas, WR, DEN, 2015 - $13.2M
Devin McCourty, S, NE, 2018 - $11.9M
Eli Manning, QB, NYG, 2007 - $11.7M
Terrell Suggs, OLB, BAL, 2012 - $11.5M
Zach Miller, TE, SEA, 2013 - $11M
Nick Collins, S, GBP, 2010 - $11M
Rob Gronkowski, TE, NE, 2018 - $10.9M
Alshon Jeffrey, WR, PHI, 2017 - $10.8M
Ryan Clady, LT, DEN, 2015 - $10.6M
Reggie Bush, RB, NOS, 2009 - $10.6M
Halota Ngata, DL, BAL, 2012 - $10.4M
Nate Solder, LT, NE, 2016 - $10.3M
Drew Brees, QB, NOS, 2009 - $10.3M
Obviously the salary cap goes up every year and salaries escalate every year. The question I pose is: Is it merely a coincidence that SB winning teams have not usually spent huge money on top of the market players . . . or do teams that spread out the salary cap across all positions have a competitive advantage?
