Yeah, $2-3M seems like a lot to most of us, but we don't have an accomplished NFL resume like DJ Reader does.  I think that a minimum 'prove it' deal for a player of Reader's esteem is likely $12-13M,or about half of what he would command had he not been injured, as you're likely only going to have him available for about half the season and the playoff run.
