And? They also didn’t pick up the 5th year option on the NFL’s leading rusher last year. They clearly don’t make good choices.

I mean, up to that point in his career he wasn't worth the $8M, and they always had the option to franchise him for slightly more (about $10M) if he did break out. If he didn't have this amazing season last year, he was gone and they couldn't have done that if they picked up the option.

It's a risk:reward situation. Low risk ($2M) and high reward. Picking up the option assumed all the risk.
