At 3.5 million, good chance he gets cut after the draft. This may have put him out of job in the NFL. The 55% number is very low in my opinion, to me it should be based on the position played. WR's for example the 55% number fair. Not so much for OG's who can be injured for 45% of the snaps and get a raise.
It's 55%+ for EVERY ONE of the first 3 years. So 1 major injury early in any season and you miss it. Don't play much your rookie year and you miss it. It's actually pretty tough to hit.
There are only 14 guys from the entire 2022 draft (2nd-7th round) who played at least 55% of the snaps every year without making a Pro Bowl on the original ballot (a Pro Bowl negates the need for any %s, you immediately are a Level 3, but it can't be as a Pro Bowl alternate). Even if you add the Pro Bowl guys you're only up to 22 guys (11 of them 2nd rounders) out of 230 picks.
Our 2023 and 2024 2nd-7th round draft classes are already out of the running for 55%+ each of the first 3 years.
