How many TEs have you seen drafted in the top 10 the past decade? Now go back and see how many RBs/WRs have been drafted in the top 10. TE doesn't have the same value. Just like a Full Back will never command the type of value that a TE or WR will.

Actually, I set the value equal in my hypothetical, so you don't have to worry about explaining that. Your job was not to tell me that the values are never equal, it was to tell me why, if values are equal, that you should pay less compensation for a TE than a RB or WR.

I can see, at most, one reason why you could be right on this.
