Trade Value

89

overall 50.2 × star 1.35 × age 32 0.59 × DT 0.92 × contract 0.93

An overpay: $6.5M against the $3.9M a player this good usually costs. Expiring, so it barely moves the number.

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.

Market Value

Going rate

—/yr

no comparable player is negotiating right now

Currently paid

$2.3M/yr

His deal

wants $10.5M/yr over 1 year

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.
