On March 27, the Seattle Seahawks just locked up wide receiver Jackson Smith and Jigba with a 4-year extension worth 168.6 million dollars, setting a new high mark for young stars at the position. This deal came after Smith and Jigba's breakout season where he led the league with 1,793 receiving yards on one. 119 catches and 10 touchdowns, fueling Seattle's Super Bowl push. Players around the league are already buzzing, with Raiders Defender Max Crosby predicting their Rams stand out Puka Nakua will top this contract since. Their production has been neck and neck over the years. Nakua heads into his final rookie year with 313 catches for 4,191 yards and 21 scores, giving his camp strong leverage as the salary cap keeps climbing. Meanwhile, the Rams might hold off on a deal until later in the off season, but with more extensions likely coming, Nakua's payday could climb even.

Higher as the market heats up.
