Elite QB, Good offensive line, young RB paid like $2 million or less, 1 Top-end WR, then 2-3 younger guys that aren't paid a lot, then TE is all over the place. But, that's the model you see. Money invested in QB, OLine, and WR1.
This is close to what I have been saying.
With an excellent oline we should never ever see WR3 getting $10M per year or RB1 at $11-13M per year again, as long as we have Joe. We could literally draft a stud RB once every 5 years in the 1st round and let him walk at the end of his contract or deal him prior, only paying rookie scale while in stripes.
I do think we can make it work to keep Tee, assuming he is ok with a #2 role. Otherwise get the stud TE.
