Positive signalValue

Robinson's contract holdout justified; should command $25M+ per year, not just $20.6M.

Robinson is holding in pending a new contract with the Falcons; the source argues he should command significantly more than the current running back market leader Saquon Barkley's $20.6M APY. The source contends Robinson should be north of $25M per year, closer to elite receiver market rates ($40M+), given his youth (24), prime status, and the fact that if he were available in free agency he would command at least $25M. Former Falcons head coach Raheem Morris repeatedly called Robinson the best player in the league, underscoring his value.
