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

You explained the situation perfectly, over paying for a RB is the type of thing that hurts teams, that this post was 0-5 downvotes tells me all I need to know about most posters on this board
