Michael Thomas WR Saints

Financial benchmark:

Michael Thomas ($10 million-avg./$6.26 million in guarantees/1 year worth up to $15 million with incentives)

Probability: $

A discussion about the NFL's best wide receiver couldn't occur without Thomas prior to him only playing 10 games over the 2020 through 2022 seasons because of foot and ankle injuries. In 2019, the last time Thomas had been healthy before being bitten by the injury bug, he set the single-season record for receptions with 149 and was named NFL Offensive Player of the Year.

There was plenty of speculation that Thomas would be released before he took a pay cut in March to remain with the Saints. He is playing under essentially a one-year, $10 million deal with $6.26 million fully guaranteed that's worth up to $15 million through incentives.

Thomas, who turns 31 in March, was sidelined with a knee injury 10 games into the season. He remains on injured reserve. Thomas had 39 catches for 448 yards with a touchdown when he hurt his knee.

Now contrast that with Jimmy Graham‘s TD stats this season compared to the Thomas lone TD.

The current paradigm of over paying and extending contracts has to end in order to remain cap compliant.
