What do you think he will get in the next day or so?
I genuinely had him at around $5-7M absolute tops, however when you look at what Sammy Watkins got ($16M) and the below, I think we may be off with expectations -
Why is this the last two years and not the last three years?
Oh, yeah, because three years ago in 13 games Watkins had 1100 yards and 9 TDs, and Richardson had 40 yards and 0 TDs.
One might object that this is unfair comparison as Richardson missed most of the season three years ago, but if you want to make a two year comparison and completely pretend as if Watkins didn't miss half of the season two years ago, you're guilty of the same crime.
Sorry for being so persnickety about that tweet, but I just hate it when people use statistics like this.
