You don't pay Gio Bernard as much as Austin Ekeler because he's a good blocker and a good teammate. "The man" has averaged 500 total yards of offense these last 3 seasons.
To continue to pay that high of price (Average Starting Running Back Price), when you just commited to a 12 mil per deal with Joe Mixon, is a terrible use of cap space.
So by your comparison Ekeler is overpaid since he still has not accomplished what Gio did in his 1st 4 years. And this year Eckler is overpaid paid also for hiis performance. I'm not saying resign Gio but Eckler is also overpaid by Gio standard of when he got contract.
