Needed to be done. I don't like paying RBs big money but JJ is up there with the best of them. We'll need him especially with a potentially rookie QB.

Probably will run him into the ground then let him walk next year. Zamir White needs more touches this season.

He had a great year last year, but I wouldn’t say he is up there with the best of them.

Paying him a couple of million extra under the franchise tag I believe.

That seems well worth the gamble he wasn't going to be the league leader in yards. Happy he balled out and made a touch more.

Why?

I'll answer this in that he seems like he is good at everything but not elite as a runner. His play reminds me a lot of Zeke. I could see him completely falling off in a couple seasons to where he's not even worth more than $8mil/yr. He's probably looking for closer to 15.

TL;DR the eyeball test

And who knows? If he wasn't on his final year he might not have done as much. It's hard to know.

His play in 2020 and 2021 probably wasn't worth $8M+

He wasn’t even considered a top 5 maybe even top 10 rb going into this season. Need more than one season to change that.
