Florio: Gap between RB and WR contracts is smaller than you think

Mike Florio questions the running back market, suggesting the gap between top RBs and top receivers is smaller than the gap between top RBs and average receivers.

Mike Florio argues the running back market is misaligned compared to receiver salaries, citing the gap between top RBs and top receivers. He notes that Saquon Barkley's $20.6 million APY leads the market, while top receivers like Jaxon Smith-Njigba and Ja'Marr Chase command north of $42 million. Florio contends the best running backs touch the ball more often than the best receivers, making the current market disparity difficult to justify. raccoongame.org
