WR Salaries in 2020
https://overthecap.com/position/wide-receiver/2020/
Not sure if there is a better way to look at this, but I was curious at what WRs across the league were making and was not surprised when I noticed Hopkins is making the 14th most… only 2m more than Fuller. Completely understand why he wants a raise closer to 18m-20m.
Some other interesting WR cap hits for 2020:
AJ Green 18.1m
Chiefs have 34m going to 2 receivers, Hill and Watkins
Keenan Allen 12.6m
Diggs at 11.5m (seems like a cheaper contract, does that give any reason to why the Vikings got so much for him?)
Cooks 8m/ Cobb 6.1m
As I am trying to better understand the WR landscape from a potential pay/trade value perspective, this definitely helped me out a bit. I'm still on the fence about this trade but need to wait until the end of the season at the earliest.
What are other realistic alternatives to the Hopkins trade you think could have happened?
