What the last few games have shown.
He still has the speed and ability to play past the injuries.
He has the game to play in the league with a decent line.
He can be motivated, now the question is that AP or the payday he can get, that is the real question.
Going forward, does he maintain that mentality after a payday.
Can he be counted on to not be on an IR list for a severe injury, yes this is not all his fault, but you have rolled the dice for 4 years and are getting clean up winnings right now.
Then what kind of payday is the league going to offer versus what the Seahawks will offer. He has not just been a good back these last weeks he has looked All Pro level. His agent is going to market that you can bet since he is now healthy.
He is going to leverage himself in a Derick Henry class with his numbers even if he is a different style of back, but will market himself as an every down back.
He is not going to take a prove it deal, I will also bet he will want a injury Guarantee if he is smart. I know I would.
So you now have to look at a good base salary, then a ton of incentive clauses that can push him to a 15 million bracket.
$15 million? If so, let him walk.
2021 top 10
1. Panthers RB Christian McCaffrey: $16 million
2. Saints RB Alvin Kamara: $15 million
2. Cowboys RB Ezekiel Elliott: $15 million
4. Vikings RB Dalvin Cook: $12.6 million
5. Titans RB Derrick Henry: $12.5 million
6. Browns RB Nick Chubb: $12.2 million
7. Packers RB Aaron Jones: $12 million
7. Bengals QB Joe Mixon: $12 million
9. Broncos RB Melvin Gordon: $8 million
10. Giants RB Saquon Barkley: $7.8 million
Yes that is what he is going to target, or his agent based on his Healthy productivity.
