AJ Brown through 3 years: 43 games, 2,995 yards (16.2 AVG), 24 TDs
DK Metcalf through 3 years: 49 games, 3,170 yards (14.7 AVG). 29 TDs
Tee Higgins through 3 years: 46 games, 3,028 yards (14.1 AVG), 19 TDs
Brown got $25m/yr, Metcalf got $24m/yr just last offseason. The cap rose $16.6m since then.
If you believe Tee Higgins is a #1 WR caliber player (and more importantly if Tee Higgins and his agent believe he's a #1 WR caliber player) then right around $25m/yr is what a young very good (but not top tier elite) #1 WR is getting these days.
The contract numbers keep going up. The WR market has absolutely exploded into insanity since the Jags gave Christian Kirk $18m/yr last year. He was made the 8th highest paid WR at the time, and now just one season later he's about to be in the 18th-20th range.
I thought AJ Brown was 20 per and Hill 25 per
