overall 161.67 × x-factor 2.2 × age 30 0.77 × QB 1.75 × contract 0.85
An overpay: $20.0M against the $12.4M a player this good usually costs. 5 years left, which is what gives it weight.
This league's own model, not Madden's — EA publishes no trade value. It prices the contract as well as the player, because a team trading for him takes the number on too. How it works.

Going rate drawn from same position, any rating, what is paid from same position, ±10 OVR. Each group widens until it holds at least five players, so a small count means this profile is rare in the league and the figure deserves less weight. Annual value is total salary plus bonus over the length of the deal — not the cap hit, which Madden back-loads.

In the Chronicle
- Vol. 3, Issue 1 · Josh Allen goes first, quarterbacks go one through five, and 1,728 picks later the HFL has 32 new rosters for Season IX. Veronica "Ronnie" Ruckus takes over the desk, and HFL-NN goes on the air.
- Vol. 2, Issue 18 · Cincinnati and Denver both finish the regular season 17-0 — the first double-perfect season in league history — Jahmyr Gibbs closes with 3,126 rushing yards to shatter the single-season record, and Joe Burrow throws for 370 yards and four touchdowns to send Carolina into the offseason on a high note.
- Vol. 2, Issue 17 · Denver and Cincinnati both push to 16-0 with one week left, Jahmyr Gibbs runs for 221 yards and four touchdowns to close in on the rushing record, and Riley Leonard's near-flawless day leads the Jets to a 37-0 shutout of New England.

- Vol. 2, Issue 12 · Denver and Cincinnati both push to 11-0, Josh Allen throws for 501 yards and seven touchdowns and still loses, and a Cardinals quarterback outlasts a shootout in Carolina.
- Vol. 2, Issue 11 · Green Bay's perfect season ends in Philadelphia, Denver and Cincinnati are the last two teams left unbeaten, and a running back the Chronicle had never featured before is the reason why.

- Vol. 2, Issue 6 · The season's first bye week thinned the slate to fourteen games and the league still found a way to rewrite the record book, play a 66-50 shootout, and send three teams to 6-0.
