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.

Only kickers and punters make less than RBs. The NFL is a passing game and positions associated with passing and stopping the pass are the highest paid. The days of the big back are over, they are cogs that are replaced every couple of years.
