[QUOTE="OldSchool101, post: 1094927, member: 10086"] Yeah the bigger ? On Watson is he’s had 50% of his career missing significant time. Not catastrophic level missed time, but still a factor when you hand out $100M+ contracts. The competition in FA when we start talking $28mil+ yearly becomes past just direct competition like Pierce. You begin to bring in other position groups into conversation when approaching $28mil annual type deals. You’re now less than <$5mil from the group of highest paid at multiple positions. As en example. If you had the choice between DT, Chris Jones and Christian Watson who would you pick? Because that’s like $3mil annual difference there. The Alec Pierce is a good comparative. Which player would you choose between Alec Pierce and Christian Watson? Now I love Watson, but Alec Pierce has been more reliable, outperformed and is an ascending player already going from 600+ to 800+ to 1000+ and still rising. Watson has never cracked 650 yards across 4 years. So I think you are correct. Watson MUST perform and remain healthy all year or he’s going to tank his value imo. He could be $30mil annual if he finished 1,100 yards and 10 TD’s or $15-20mil annual if he misses 7-8 games again. So #9 has up to $15mil annual riding on his health in 2026 imo. Can you imagine GB having Chris Jones and Davante Wyatt and Javon Hargrave either side. Then Micah and Lukas coming onto the scene? We could go out and draft at CB and Edge using #52 and #84 without blinking an eye. Then focus on Offense all Day 3. OL, RB, TE etc. [/QUOTE]
