Yeah. I'm not disagreeing with you 👍🏻. I just think some people tend to use the "receiver market" as his set-in-stone value… I tend to believe that "value to the specific team" also plays a part… meaning a receiver like BA would hold more value on a talent-depleted roster than he might on the niners squad. Relative value, if that's what you want to call it. If that's the case, there really aren't any comps out there due to there not being any other receivers in this specific position.
example: I don't think ceedee would get that contract on this team either.
example 2: cmc got an insane contract on our squad that he probably wouldn't have gotten elsewhere
could be wrong. Just a thought
CMC I still believe is vastly underpaid if you look at how valuable he is. People need to stop judging him based on the position that he plays and look at him as a football player and all that he does. His annual salary is like $19 Million a season and the guy touches the ball over 300 times a season and is elite in all aspects of the game. To put it in perspective is there a WR in the league that is more valuable than CMC? Maybe Tyreek but it's close. And these elite WR's are getting paid almost twice as much as CMC. You have midtier WR's getting paid more than CMC. I am sorry but $19 Million a season is a bargain when it comes to CMC. But people look at it as expensive because of the label RB's get. He's not your typical RB.
Right, and that's my point exactly
