Bad deal for the Dolphins if its a straight up 10+

If its something like 7.5 with roster bonuses and escalators up to 12 then its good for both sides.

If he balls for 16 this year he will get paid next year.

Given what he did in 1H 2020, gotta think it's well north of 10M+.

He is worth 12 a year multiplied by the percentage of games he is actually on the field.

His max is 11 in the last 4 years and 14 as a rookie.

So far its at 66.25% so pay him in that 7.5-8 range and then give him bonuses for games played.

His nickname should be The Soft Tissue Speedster.

 

The Dolphins were free to overpay him and not care if he plays 8 games.

 Totally agree.   If you have legit talent, and the market is this soft - try again next year, when the cap could go up as much as 40M per team.   

Well to be fair maybe no one wanted to give him a long term deal so was it a smart move or him just settling. He missed a ton of games his 1st 4 years then got pinched for PEDs in his 5th year. So maybe teams want to see a prove it deal to see if he can stay healthy then paying him 30+ in guaranteed money on a long term deal.
