Who are the most paid NFL players in every position?

In the NFL, at least it is always growing. Each season, Superstars resets the market, changing wages that the best players in every position expect. Eagles’ Saquoon Barkley And Browns’ Myles Garrett They are the latest.

Barkley became the highest paid run of all time on Tuesday, agreeing to a two -year extension worth $ 41 million. A day later, Maxx Crosby Not only did it become the highest paid defense player, it also became the highest paid non-Qarmareck in NFL history. However, he held that title for only a few days, until Garrett’s job surpassed his.

On Sunday, Cleveland gave Garrett a record extension with an average annual salary of $ 40 million.

They may not be the only ones in this season. Bengali wide receiver Ja’marr Chase and a cowboy striker Micah Parsons are among candidates who could become the highest paid players in their position.

With this, we looked at the highest paid NFL players at the average annual value (AAV), with all the salaries numbers arrived through the cones.

Prescott became the highest paid NFL player when he signed his extension ahead Cleveland Browns Last season. The four -year contract, $ 240 million, was the highlight of the unpleasant season in which he owned Cowboys Jerry Jones Wishy-Washy on Paying Prescotta.

Prescott earned his long -term contract after his career’s best season 2023, when he ended up a high 69.5% of his career passage and threw 36 Touchdown leagues. Its end percentage decreased to 64.7 in the first eight games of the 2024 season, before missing the last nine games with a partially torn knee.

The value of the back running He is constantly slow and Barkley has done a lot to help his peers and himself. Barkley was awarded a two -year extension of $ 41 million after winning the NFL offensive player of the year in the first year with the Eagles. AND New York Giants They did not want to pay Barley after six seasons with the team, so the eagles used it, collecting it at the free agency in recent seasons. They have now doubled the investments, locking Barkley after rushing to 2.005 meters in career and 13 Touchdown during the regular season and helped them win the Super Bowl Lix.

Jefferson raised the reception tape last summer when he signed a four -year contract of $ 140 million. Paying a receiver, like a back running, is not something that each team subscribes as Kansas City Chiefs and Bills Buffalo Did each make deep playoffs with patched rooms.

Jefferson is not a type of player you can replace by the committee. The double first-team All-Pro led NFL in the reception yards (1,809) and admission (128) 2022. He was the second in receiving the yard by the match 2023 (107.4) and finished second behind Chase in receiving the yard last season (1,533). Jefferson set up these numbers despite inconsistencies at the attacker. He has captured passes from six different attackers since it was composed in 2020.

As the Eagles did with Barkley, the chiefs awarded one of their biggest stars after helping them win Super Bowl. Kelce will play the second season of his two -year contract of $ 34.25 million, which he received last season He announced that he would not withdraw. The 35-year-old Kelce will hope that he will be deducted in 2025 from the worst season of his career-Osim of his Rookie season, when he appeared in just one match to which he had the lowest in the reception yards (8.5) and Touchdown (3).

Last summer, Wirfs signed a five -year contract of $ 140.6 million to become the highest paid offensive accessories, whether it is the right or left. The Wirf, however, plays both sides of the line and does it at a high level. In fact, he became the first player to ever been named first-team All-PRO in the left and right attachment.

Wirfs earned the highest class of blocking the passage of any offensive midfielder in 2024 at 94.1, including post -season, and allowed zero bags and only one QB hit, Per Pro Football Focus. Wirf -I have also won the Super Bowl Lv with the Buccaneers.

Despite being one of two NFL players receive a franchise mark This off -season, Smith was supposed to be the highest paid offensive guard at a one -year competition. Still, he and the chiefs could still agree on a long -term agreement before the deadline of July 15.

Smith played 1,288 shootings in the right place and gave up only one bag, PFF states. Joe Thuney and Nick Allegretti They were the only guards playing more shooting than he did last season.

Humphrey, Smith’s neighbor on the offensive line, had PFF’s highest passage rating at any Center 2024 at 91.5, including postseason. Allowed zero bags and only two QB hits. In two of his four NFL season, he did not allow the bag – and surrendered only seven in his career, according to PFF. Humphrey and Smith Tandem were crucial to the victory of Chiefs Super Bowla in the 2022 and 2023 season, and their contracts are vital for the long -term success of the team.

Garrett became the new holder of the highest paid crown for non-quarterback when he received a $ 160 million contract, including $ 123.5 million guarantees, Per Fox Sports’ Jordan Schultz.

The extension came over a month after Browns’s Star Pass-Rusher asked for a store. Cleveland’s front office, however, was unwavering that Garrett would not deal with. Eventually, both sides concluded an agreement to retain the defensive player of the year AP 2023 in Ohi.

Browns chose Garretta with the first selection on the NFL draft 2017. Since then, he has lived to Hipe, with franchise high bags of 102.5. He was named first-team All-Pro four times and made six Pro Bowl. In 2024, he led Browns with 14 bags and 22 league league for loss, but only went 3-14. Garrett only played in three post -season games in his eight seasons in Cleveland.

Jones became the highest paid defense move when he agreed to a five -year contract of $ 158.75 million, which would remain in Kansas City during the 2024 off -season.

The Chiefs star has certainly submitted a strong claim that he earns the title of the most paid player in his position. Sixty Pro Bowler and three-time first-team All-Pro recorded at least nine bags in five of the last seven seasons, helping Kansas City to win three Super Bowls at the time.

Jones had 37 total fights and five bags last season during 15 games. Although his BOX statistics may not appear, Jones led all defensive fights in the passage rate (16%) and was second in pressure (74) in position, according to PFF.

Buffalo Bilk ‘ Josh Allen He may have MVP, but he can’t claim that he is the highest paid player in his position like Josh Hines-Allen Can. The latter became the highest paid external striker in the 2024 season, when he made five -year -old, $ 141.25 million with Jaguari.

Hines-Allen was effective as a passerby, publishing at least seven bags in five of his first six seasons. He had a whopping 17.5 bags of 2023, ending up in the top 12 in pressure in each of the last three seasons.

Of the defensive positions, the internal Linebacker has the cheapest average annual contract leader. Still, Smith makes a nice little thing. Reached a five -year extension of $ 100 million ($ 60 million guaranteed) with the Ravens in January 2023, working that after Chicago bears He traded it in the middle of the 2022 season.

Smith was probably the best NFL inner striker since the bears chose the eighth overall choice in the 2018 design. He was appointed to the All-Pro team in five of his first seven seasons, including three nodes of the first team. He also recorded at least 100 total fights in his career in each season, registering a total of 120 or more than them.

Although Smith never led the league in the fight, he ended up in the top 10 five times, and ended three times in the top five in Run Stops, according to PFF.

Similar to Smith, Ramsey has been a very decorated corner since Jaguari chose him to the fifth overall choice in the 2016 design.

Ramsey, sevenfold Pro Bowler, signed a three -year, $ 72.3 million extension with dolphins for days before the start of the 2024 season. Extension came immediately after Denver Broncos Cornerback Patrick Sertain II has become the highest paid corner in the league with a contract with an average annual value of $ 24 million.

The triple first-team All-Pro did not set high intercepts during his career, with only 24 menus in nine seasons. But the opponent’s attackers were hard to throw themselves in Ramsey’s direction during his career, announcing a mediocre rating of passers -by of 79.3 when you do, according to PFF.

Following his father’s steps, Winfield quickly became one of the best league defense backs shortly after the Buccaneers chose him in the second round of draft 2020. He was rewarded as such during the 2024 season, reaching a four -year, $ 84.1 million contracts with certainty.

Winfield, a one-off all-Pro and Pro Bowler, was active accessories during the first five seasons in his career. His 6.53 combined fights per game are fourth among safety since 2020 (played 50 games). He also led a league in forced fumbles in 2023, noting six while pulling out four loose balls.

After helping the leaders win the third Super Bowl during the 2023 season, Bucher received a record contract. He signed a four -year contract of $ 25.6 million in August 2024.

Bucher was never actually declared Pro Bowler or All-PRO, but he was one of the most tattered NFL kicks since he joined Chiefs in 2017. He led a league in points in 2019, while his percentage of 88.6 in the field was achieved by the second best sign in the League history. He also made some beautiful shots, an exhausting unforgettable field goal on Zujanje to send a division game against Buffalo Bills to extend in January 2022 and knocked a record for the longest-running goal on the field in the Super Bowl victory over the chapter 49ers In February 2024.

Of the players on this list, Dickson’s contract is the oldest. In June 2021 he signed a four -year, $ 14.5 million extension.

Although Dickson was not named All-Pro or Pro Bowler during the contract, the contract was well old. The third is all the time in the yards by Punt (48.2) and ended up in the top 10 in the statue in each of the last three seasons.
