ESPN’s Rich Cimini recently reported that an agent at the Senior Bowl speculated Braxton Berrios may be looking for a contract worth around $9 million per year.
Should the New York Jets re-sign Berrios at that cost?
In my opinion, the answer to that is a hard no.
Allow me to present my case.
Volume production
Looking purely at Berrios’ volume production, a contract worth $9 million per year would be a massive overpay compared to his track record.
A salary of $9 million would currently rank 24th-highest among all wide receivers, per Spotrac.
