NFL Coaching Salaries Are Set to Explode Soon
 
Sean Payton reportedly getting offered $100 million to go to Miami signals a long-coming adjustment for elite coaches.

• This is something I’ve been meaning to write for a while—a market correction could be, and should be, coming for NFL head coaches.

I’ll pull out the example of Sean Payton to provide context here. The Florida Sun-Sentinel reported Monday that the ex-Saints coach was offered a five-year, $100 million deal to take the Miami job earlier this year. I’m told the offer itself was actually $100 million over four years. And before that, in New Orleans, my understanding is Payton was on a five-year deal worth $80 million, when everything was added up.

So he walked away from $16 million per, and could’ve gotten $25 million per. Sounds like a lot? But is it? Take a look at NFL economics, and you might be lead in another direction here. The league pulls down an estimated $18 billion per year. There are 15 (!) quarterbacks making $25 million per or more, and one making double that. Aaron Donald, Tyreek Hill, Davante Adams, DeAndre Hopkins, Joey Bosa, Cooper Kupp, A.J. Brown and Myles Garrett are there too. Roger Goodell makes $63.9 million per year.

Still think Payton’s numbers there are out of whack?

If SP coaches next year for some other team, we better get at least three #1s. I just wonder if that was part of a secret master plan to make up for #1s?

True Dat! I was telling my lady yesterday that we could really use two more first round picks IF Sean wants to come back. That's actually a big IF in my book.

Not sure he wants to any time soon. I wouldn't if I was him. Making the same money working a fraction of the hours. More face time to feed the ego.

I want him to coach again for two reasons and they're both first round draft picks! :p

Should be more... more than Deshaun Watson deal.
