    I’d give him $18-$19 mill/year.  Names like amari cooper, Mike Williams, DJ Moore, Keenan Allen are getting $20 mill/year and I don’t think he’s in their level.  Out of those names I just said, you think he should get more than them?  Do you think his “production” is better than theirs?  Out of those names, the only one I’d say is debatable is Mike Williams.  But the other ones, I’d happily do a straight up swap.

     

    once again, I agree his production is good, but not WR1 good.  You can’t just point to his stats and say “look he’s a WR1”.  Sorry, what field does he stretch?  Does he command a corner AND a safety because he might score on you at any moment?  No to both of those questions.  If he doesn’t play like an alpha receiver then he’s not one, no matter what the stats say.  Just to show you how much stats don’t tell the story, when Carson wentz was here one thing wentz-apologist said was “well looking at his stats he had a good season” but did he?  Nope.  Look, I’m a homer just like you, but we can’t give him $20mill or more (depending on the market) if people who are making that can do more than him.  To be honest, I’d be willing to give him $20mill but if he wants any more than that I’m fine with him walking.   Now I agree, if there’s no one else out there or we don’t have the draft capital to get us one then yeah, we just have to pay him because we have to have someone.

    Hell likely get just as much, and more than likely more than, those guys just because he is getting his deal chronologically after theirs.  That's how it works...constant creep higher and higher
