Fair Value
OverpayFair ValueGreat Value
This signing grades out as an overpay for the Miami Dolphins — the team is paying more than the on-field production currently warrants. Zack's on-field performance ranks in the bottom quartile among NFL TEs, grading him as an unproven at the position. His $968K average annual value ranks as bargain money for the TE market. The concern here is the gap between production and cost — unproven output at bargain money means the team is paying a premium above the player's on-field value. Zack is squarely in his prime, which adds to the deal's upside — the team should get multiple productive seasons out of this contract.
