So the Hawks paid the underachieving Burleson the same massive salary as Hutchinson, a perennial pro bowler, just so he could come in and return kicks? Okay, he scorched us on the 90-yarder. But it must be a little difficult for the Hawks to swallow knowing that they have all that money inverted in a guy who may be the 5th reviever by the start of next season (Jackson, Branch, Engram and DJ Hackett- who was very very impressive.)
Imagine if Dante Hall, Jerome Mathis or Bethel Johnson made that much for doing what they do?
