Frank Gore is a similar player to DeAngelo Williams. They’re the same age. Neither can stay healthy. Gore averages 4.7 yards per carry for his career. Williams averages 5.0. Both are listed at 5-9 217. They have similar skill sets. Relatively, this 3 year deal worth 21 million with 13.5 million guaranteed looks a lot better than DeAngelo Williams’ 5 years 43 million with 21 million guaranteed. This deal is worth less guaranteed, less per year, and goes for less years than Williams’ deal. However, Williams’ deal was ridiculous so I think this is still a little rich. Gore is still an injury prone player who will be making 7 million per year at a position that just isn’t that valuable in this league anymore.
