What is Pollard's potential comp pick?

Each team I believe tonight had about 50 yards rushing! you think the RB is the way to the Superbowl. Pollard can be gone tonight and it will NOT be a factor!!
 
No one will give him enough to get a good comp pick. WRs, DE, OT get the big free agent money.
 
Lol… Imagine not learning from your previous mistake of signing a Pro Bowl RB to a second contract. There’s a lot of running backs out there in the draft every year…it wouldn’t be the smartest move.
Different type RBs, so you don't know what low tread is? Makes sense. Franchise tag is not long term. Yes, they should draft a RB. You know they can keep TP and draft a RB, sheesh.
 
Unless he’s 100% in March, Pollard will not get what he wants. Lucky us….we may get him for less.
 
We need to draft a QB every year for a while. Dak is not going to take us there.
 
The franchise tag for a rb is 12.2mil. Like I said if 9 mil is his price which it won't, they need to sign him already. I think his price starts at that 12.2 mil
Since we can lock him in at 12.2 for this year, and RBs are depreciating assets, I'd say 12.2 is the per year *ceiling* for a multiyear contract.
 
There won't be a comp pick for Pollard, he's a Cowboy.

Imagine wanting to get rid of a Top 5 Pro Bowl RB w/low tread for an unknown and a 5th round comp pick. Coop deal all over again...Dallas, where they don't like Playmakers.
Top 5 RB playmaker who was largely wasted while here. Not run enough, and only sent deep *once*, for a 60 yard td, and then not again.

He's very low mileage for a RB too, and neither gives nor takes punishment. Just bounces off tackles.

The Spotrac suggested contract is ok. 3 years, 9mil each year. I think he probably has 3 quality years left in him. I can see franchising him for just one year too at 12mil.

We spent more on an already declining Zeke, and then Schulz. Neither was close to the player Pollard is.
 
Pretty simple. How much money does he sign for and for how long. If its a mega contract then we get a third. Not sure what mega is, but I'm guessing over 10 million a year for 5 years.
 
Broadly the formula works on the league average per year salary.
  • Top 5% = 3rd
  • 5-10% = 4th
  • 10-15% = 5th
  • 15-25% = 6th
  • 35-45% = 7th
Except incentives only count if they are likely to be earned, and earned in the 1st year and if a player doesn't perform the year after they left they get discounted, So where Gregory might have got us a 4th that's probably dropped down to a 5th now. Shultz and Pollard are most likely to be a 5th range but could jump to a 4th if we are lucky.
 
There’s no such thing as a second round compensation pick. He would get you a fourth probably
Id guess a 5th. His money would likely be in line for a 4th, but its tiered so he would like be one the first 5th's. Good example of this is Robert Quinn. His 15 million was in line for a 3rd when he signed with Chicago. However a few deals leapfrogged his and it bumped out of of a 3rd round comp to a 4th
 
The injury unfortunately for him will likely lower the contract value, guaranteed dollars and years. 6-8 million a year is probably fair. I'll predict 3 year 24 million deal with 12 million guaranteed.
