I wonder if they are considering extending Addison now?... Addison does not have as many targets or receptions as these two who are the #1 WR on their teams. Addison also benefits from having Jefferson on the other side of the field drawing all kinds of attention... Still, Addison could be worth Devonta Smith money. When Smith signed he got 9.79% of the cap.

STACKED’s take

NeutralValue

Addison extension pending; Flowers/Olave deals raise market but Jefferson attention limits WR1 valuation.

Jordan Addison's contract extension is under consideration by the Vikings; Zay Flowers' $140M deal and Chris Olave's $124M deal raise market expectations, but Addison's lower target/reception volume and benefit from Justin Jefferson drawing defensive attention suggest he may not command WR1 money. Addison could be worth Devonta Smith money (9.79% of cap = $29M AAV in 2026, or $32M AAV if extended in 2027), but the Vikings must decide whether to tie up significant cap on both top receivers.
