It is and always has been a function of productivity (in this case plays that win games) per unit salary. There just aren’t enough plays available at any position to afford to go out and be at the top of the market except QB.
I think in practice it would never work - you probably can’t be cheap everywhere. And I’m totally not against Free Agents. Just not ones at the top of the market.
Before I get put on blast again, I am open to being wrong about Hill. But if he wants OBJ money we are probably better off letting him get it elsewhere.
That’s a really good comparison.

Depends on how well Hill does this year...he looks to still be getting better and with Mahomes arm, it might be worth tying him up for the better part of his career. He's a one of a kind player...you cant just go draft his replacement. When you have a player that is so much better than than everyone on the field...you pay them. He's what you hope and pray a draft pick becomes.
When Hill ages..he's still going to be faster than 80% of the WRs. If he keeps working his craft...he could have a S.Smith type of extended career.
