I saw a good write up on why the value of RBs in the top ten of the draft is immediately out of whack
He's immediately in the top 5 highest paid backs in the league just off his rookie contract.
The most a RB got in free agency was Miles Sanders coming off a great year and a Superbowl run. Bijan immediately gets more than him.
If a guy that good, isn't worth being retained by a team trying to win the Superbowl, what are the chances that a RB is gonna be worth more to a fairly bad team with a lot of holes?
If Bijan comes in and is one of the best and changes everything for the Falcons, then sure, I guess he's worth it, but it's a pretty huge risk
