This is what I find interesting as well - while many wondered how the Vikes could keep/re-sign their stud players with Cousins huge contract, we are only paying 4 mil more this year on QB position:

"The Vikings didn’t even need to change their roster significantly to fit Cousins in. As Minneapolis Star-Tribune columnist Sid Hartman pointed out this offseason, the Vikings are spending just $4 million more on quarterbacks than last year (a reminder, kids: Never overpay Sam Bradford. You’ll regret it). The Vikings landed Cousins without having to fundamentally change a team that went 13-3 last season."

I've told several friends this since the Cousins signing.  I didn't have the exact number, but I knew that Sam was about 18 mil, and Keenum+Teddy were making more than Simien+Sloter, who are dirt cheap, so the overall increase wasn't much.
