Quote:Ok, nobody is saying he has never been productive. We aren't paying him based off his previous production though. A 1100 yard season doesnt get you 8-10 million per year. He is getting enormously overpaid for one career year when he has only been above average in the past.


If you want to ignore the enormous risk that signing him to maybe the richest running back contract in the league, then be my guest. All that I am saying is that, in my opinion, the risk isnt worth it with so many other options available. I would hate to not draft a Todd Gurley and watch him become the next big thing and then pay another player 10 million.
In 2011 and 2012 he split carries with Felix Jones and still produced great numbers.  Saying "one career year" doesn't tell the whole story.  2023 -14 were  the only years he was really the clear centerpiece back.
