This is to-date earnings, not including the millions they've made on endorsements:

Peterson - $82.14m
Mathieu - $46.86m
Fournette - $22.98m
Chark - $2.48m (He will get a MUCH fatter second contract)
Delpit - ~$10.00m (Estimate based on salary and bonus of 20th pick last year)

Total - $164.46m

Not too shabby.

Yeah, they should. Would be a nice selling point, especially after Delpit and Chark get paid. The average per player will be insane.

That was Len Dawson, who also got Fresca for a bonus.

They could take this a few steps forward & show breakdowns of LSU QBs, WRs, RBs, DLs, LBs, CBs, & OLs + overall totals in the last 10-15 years.

It MIGHT start an e-war with Bama to compare. But still being in the Top 5 of NFL producing talent/$.

Would definitely be interesting to see.

Well since you did a total and not an ever age you didn’t technically exclude him.

His big fat $0 was excluded from the list, as well as his name

And yes, once Chark and Delpit get paid, I'll do an average and properly exclude him from that.
