If and when they do reach that level of production Helu and Royster will rightly desire that level of compensation.

I really don't want the club to have that model. I would much rather have a packers/patriots model where our cap dollars go more towards the QB and receivers and the online that gives th protection.. Of course I want our RBs to be the best in the league, I just don't want to wind up handcuffed by them in the future regarding salary cap. I find it embarrassing for the bears forte released a video of himself sled running to get a better contract.
RBs get hurt too often and are too easily replaceable to tie cap dollars to.
