Flacco 11th in salary cap figure? I thought he was the highest paid QB ever

Is Jay Cutler, Sam Bradford, Matt Ryan, Phillip Rivers, and Matthew Stafford better than Flacco? Cause their salary cap is hitting their teams harder.

 

Flacco may be paid more overall, but his salary is more cap-friendly.

And all of them are in bad contracts.
