on differences of 138 yards per season and .3 td's per season when the outlier 656 yard season pulls down TEE's numbers.
Injuries are part of the game and Devonta can just as easily have injury issues in 2024 as TEE can.
It isn't just TEE's height that Teams may favor for a #1 receiver role but also the weight difference of 219 versus 170 pounds.
Some Teams may prefer TEE's body type, others may not but Devonta has chosen to stay in a #2 role which is interesting.
TEE may not want to be 2nd fiddle and his Agent will negotiate using every lever he can to maximize the Money including possible #1 potential.
I doubt that many NFL GM's see this GREAT difference of Devonta being Head & Shoulders better than TEE the way you do.
I didnt say Smith was head and shoulders above Tee. I have said Smith is more productive, has better stats, plays more and should be paid more. Tee isnt as productive. The stats dont lie. You cant just ignore injury history and claim Tee should be paid the same when he doesnt play as much or produce as much. Tee should expect to be paid less than Smith.
