No one expects him to be the best, quite literally my point. We already know exactly what he is, same as we knew what MVS was. His ceiling has been reached and he isn’t getting younger. It’s nothing personal against him, it’s just how the NFL works. Teams don’t even pay their #1 anymore, you definitely don’t pay your backup. Look around the league at trends and positional values, Dillon isn’t worth keeping unless it’s like $2-3 million a year. And even then that’s just a rookie contract number so he likely won’t take it. He’s not better than Mostert, Hall, Dobbins, or Swift and that’s where they all fall into the salary list.
It’s nothing personal, he hasn’t done anything wrong, he just isn’t good enough to pay much more than 35-45th in salary, especially when you add in the fact we already have a highly paid RB.
