I think Tom Brady was the highest paid at $18 million then the following year Peyton Manning was highest paid with Denver, then Flacco become highest paid after winning Super Bowl. Drew Brees and Eli Manning are in there somewhere with receiving highest contract only for someone else to be the highest paid the following season.
