Trade Value

overall 30.18 × star 1.35 × age 25 1.08 × QB 1.75 × contract 0.9
An overpay: $8.0M against the $5.4M a player this good usually costs. 3 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, ±5 OVR, same age group. 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.
