According to an ESPN report, ‘great’ power school QBs cost $3M. An average QB costs $1M. These are per year figures. On top of scholarship money. Elsewhere for high-end players:
RB = $300K-$700K
WR = $400K-$800K
TE = $200K-$400K
OT = $500K-$1M
Edge = $500K-$1M
CB = $300K-$800K
S = $300K-$700K
No love for LBs?
Our WR who went to Texas Tech reportedly got $900K, the one who went to Minnesota got $5K.
The ante to get into the game is definitely increasing rapidly!
Here is a look at the price range for each position based on the survey:
Quarterback: $1 million-$2 million
Running back: $300,000-$700,000
Wide receiver: $400,000-$800,000
Tight end: $200,000-$400,000
Offensive tackle: $500,000-$1 million
Offensive guard/center: $300,000-$700,000
Edge rushers: $500,000-$1 million
Defensive tackles: $300,000-$800,000
Linebackers: $200,000-$500,000
Cornerbacks: $300,000-$800,000
Safeties: $300,000-$700,000
“Mama don’t let your baby grow up to be tight ends….”
The number I heard was $1.1MM. Splitting hairs at that point, but I’ll give him his second comma
I was told it was 975K for Virgil.
Hope he’s worth it. More than all but one of our coaches. CFB is all messed up.
At 900k I read he’s expected to be their #1 WR. At $900,000 and 60 catches that’s $15,000/catch. Would guess he came to the Miami at the right time to restart his career. Bet a bunch of our current transfers in saw that and future portals are watching that close. Just don’t unpack your bags.
Reggie Virgil had 57 catches and Texas Tech made the playoff. Was probably a fair trade for all involved.
It was immensely enjoyable seeing those losers get shutout
