Mark signed for $5M but told the Saints it would take $8M. We signed Murray for around $3.6M. About a million less than we offered Mark.
if my math is right, after federal taxes and the difference in state income taxes, Mark gets around an extra $70,000 in his pocket per year. I have to think a good chunk of that gets eaten up with the cost of living difference.
Did you see how many carries Murray received when Kamara was active? I really think it came down to Mark seeing that the RBBC wasn’t Going back to 1A-1B as it was in 2017. He had less touches in 2018 and he probably figured that he’d get even less in 2019.
