    Top 10 Highest Paid Ole Miss Players vs Top 10 MSU

    An Ole Miss site just released their 10 highest paid NFL players & I was curious to compare their top 10 to MSU's for the 2020 season.

    The results are well..... rather staggering & this doesn't even include Simmons & Sweat.

    They should have done the comparison while they were still in college.

    From the title of the post, that's what I thought he meant.

    Brandon Bolden has had a great career for a journeyman RB.

    Huge difference.

    Pick 26: 4.46 million
    Pick 37: 1.90 million
    Pick 51: 1.41 million
    Pick 64: 1.46 million

    This didn't seem right to me, so I looked up abram. They have a different number

    ETA... this doesn't change the jist of this though. The big money guys are on our side

    Of course you did....

    Depends on if you average his signing bonus as part of the annual earnings. Up to you. NFL contacts are difficult, so there is certainly some wiggle room here.

    Either way, the picture from 30K feet doesn't change. A lot to a little

    I just googled what each player was making. Sportrac is too tough to figure out with the NFL's rules.

    Yeah. that's clear.

    Just try not to be the world's biggest ass hole when doing so.

    I'd need an NFL capoligist to get these numbers perfect & even then they'd be debatable.

    Absolutely insane that a 3 star tight end is making more than their entire top 10 combined.

    In their defense, this year is cherry picked because Eli came off the books

    That's true, and is important in the interest of transparency. I believe I read that he's been paid more in his career than any other NFL player - something over $250M.
