but he probably aint getting anything less than #13M/yr either so all those suggesting $10M are crazy. That's the market these days for top RBs


Is it? I don’t see it.

We won’t pay him 13 per.

Christian McCaffrey $16M
Zeke Elliot $15M
Lev Bell $13.1
David Johnson $13
Derrick Henry $10.2 (Franchise tag)
Kenyan Drake $8.4
Melvin Gordon $8

The market is not what you or I think it should be, it is what it is. The Panthers & McCaffrey just set it at $16M/yr. Looking at age and production, you tell me where you think AK should be. I'm not beating the drum to pay a RB, even AK a ton of money, but the only RBs I might rank ahead of him are McCaffrey, Elliot, and Henry. When Henry signs his deal I imagine it will be in the $15M range. I think the floor for AK's new deal is Leveon Bell's at $13M
