Sanu shouldn't be used a whole lot this year so his production won't warrant a huge contract. I could see us wrapping him up with something like 3 years/$9-12 million next offseason.
Assuming MLJ has a good year, I envision them letting him walk, and then having A.J. at WR1 with a 5 year extension, rookie (1-3 round) at WR2, and Sanu in the slot with a 3 year contract.
Jones has had an injury problem so far in his career. He had a foot injury his rookie year too. Most solid #2s only get around 4 mil a year. Jones will have to do a LOT of work this year to get over 4 mil a year. If Jones walks then we have to get another WR in the draft, or free agency. Sanu wouldn't be that great of a #2. Just for reference Golden Tate only gets paid a little over 6 mil a year (on average), and he's a lot better than Jones.
