I disagree this is true, and definitely with safeties, but that seems to be the case based on how the market is playing out.

It doesn't make sense to me, it's obviously a passing league, but somehow either of us could possibly start at safety for us.

The top Safety yearly salaries is better than the top RB salaries. RB # 7-10 are under $10M.

1. Chargers safety Derwin James: $19 million
2. Steelers safety Minkah Fitzpatrick: $18.2 million
3. Buccaneers safety Antoine Winfield, Jr.: $17.1 million
4. Falcons safety Jessie Bates III: $16.01 million
5. Vikings safety Harrison Smith: $16 million
6. Broncos safety Justin Simmons: $15.25 million
7. Cardinals safety Budda Baker: $14.1 million
8. Ravens safety Marcus Williams: $14 million
9. Patriots safety Kyle Dugger: $13.8 million
10. Browns safety Grant Delpit: $12 million
10. Cardinals safety Jalen Thompson: $12 million


RB's
1 Christian McCaffrey San Francisco 49ers $16 million
2 Alvin Kamara New Orleans Saints $15 million
3 Jonathan Taylor Indianapolis Colts $14 million
4 Saquon Barkley Philadelphia Eagles $12.6 million
5 Nick Chubb Cleveland Browns $12.2 million
