What we have to keep in mind is that NFL contracts go up every year. So if, for example, we sign Christian Kirk to a deal that makes him the 15th highest paid receiver in the league, in a few years, while he's still under contract, he'll be the 25th highest paid receiver in the NFL.
So when in comes to Engram, we will sign him to what appears to be a blockbuster contract. And it might appear to be more than he's worth. But keep in mind, if we make him, for example, the 4th or 5th highest or even the highest paid TE in the league, in a few years, while he's still under contract, he will be the 10th highest paid TE. Because contracts keep going up. So when we compare Engram's new contract to other players, we have to keep in mind when the other players signed those contracts.
From everything I read and hear, Engram is a model teammate, a hard worker and great for team chemistry. We've seen his talent on the field. He's a matchup nightmare, because he's too fast to be covered by a LB and too big to be covered by a safety. Our Super Bowl window is open starting next year. I would break the bank to re-sign him.
