Current Contract

Contract Value Index (CVI)

Cedrick Wilson Jr.'s $0.8M AAV deal with Miami represents a shrewd low-risk move that earns a B- CVI grade, offering the Dolphins significant upside at minimal cost. Wilson enters as an unproven commodity at the NFL level, but securing any receiver with legitimate potential for less than $1M annually creates immediate value in today's inflated market where proven slot options routinely command $8-12M per season. At 28, Wilson sits in his theoretical prime years, meaning Miami is buying into his peak athletic window rather than paying for decline-phase production. The minimal financial commitment eliminates downside risk entirely — even if Wilson flames out, the Dolphins can cut ties without meaningful cap implications while maintaining roster flexibility. This represents exactly the type of calculated gamble contending teams should make on the margins, where the potential return on a breakout season far exceeds the modest investment required.

Performance Analysis

Cedrick Wilson Jr. earns an F for the Dolphins at wide receiver, a player whose productive days in Dallas now feel like ancient history. Wilson was once a useful complementary receiver, but his production has completely dried up in Miami. He has not been able to find a role in the Dolphins offense, and his contributions have been negligible. His speed and route-running ability have declined to the point where he is no longer a threat. The Dolphins have moved on to younger options, and Wilson's NFL career appears to be reaching its conclusion.
