You want to crown Reggie, go for it. He is a valuable member of the team, but no more than PT, Colston, Evans, Nicks, and certainly not Drew.

Sean Payton and Loomis do the speaking for me. They determine the market. If they didn't think Reggie was worth the money, they wouldn't give him that much. They obviously must value Reggie more than other players.

You can accuse me of making it up, which when that didn't pan out it suddenly becomes irrelevant.

Yes, a snap stat exists outside of NFL.com. But they don't show what Reggie's effect was when he was in on those "snaps" without the ball. You contended that PT did more with his "snaps" when there is no way to tell that other than stats which is where Reggie doesn't show up. The "quality" of Reggie's snaps without the ball play a huge role where TD's are concerned (see the Philly/Giants clips I've linked) and outweigh his "quantity" of snaps, (or lack thereof, 41% as you pointed out). Thus, your argument backed by that "snaps" link is, once again, irrelevant.


As far as the uncapped year excuse for the reason Reggie is getting so much, they could have kept every player from last year if they wanted, but they let them go based on money decisions. They didn't "value" them for the price they were asking, but they certainly value Reggie even at $8 million. That speaks volumes for my argument.
