I personally don’t think Lazard gets anywhere near the same PT on most teams.

The bears run blocking was alright, pass blocking was atrocious. DM’s biggest problem was Nagy, he could have a big year if he’s got a playcaller that’ll actually scheme & stick to the run. Dude was averaging 16 yards per carry against the rams at one point & Nagy didnt have him touch the ball the next 2 series.
The S&P itself found that returns are positively skewed to the point that not many people actually get the average return.

Arlington Heights, Des Moines… what’s the difference?
Actually, let’s split the difference. Say hello to your newest franchise, The Quad-City ThunderBears.
Those are portfolio management funds. Of course they're skewed. But if you invest straight up and, of course, do your homework 6% is very conservative and is straight math because there's nothing more than gain and loss. Again, the key is 'compound' mentality (ie long term holdings). With that in mind the most unmanageable aspect is what the government controls (ie taxes and inflation).
What "conservative investment" are you investing in to get a 6% return? Stock market is a great investment but is far from conservative.
The rookie contract length should be shortened. The NFLPA has always blundered these negotiations. Owners lawyers have been saving them from themselves in these labor talks for decades. Let them blow tens of millions on Sam Bradford.
The players' union approved of this structure 10 years ago??? The players/veterans were the party that were tired of paying all the money to unproven rookies and obviously the owners agreed with them. Hence, the big money now goes to the performers in the 4th year??
First round money is now capped, but nothing crazy like it was.
It's a miracle a RB makes it a whole season without injury (based on my last 10 years of fantasy football).
I would have to disagree. With munis and corporates at historically low rates, you have to take greater risk (more equities) to get the returns u are suggesting.
Please exclude the last two years returns as these were artificiality stimulated by the stimulus.
Agree on the stimulus and, per your premise of diversified investment, yes, but as I stated when it comes to equities 'greater risk' sounds like a broker's perspective. I've been investing since the 80's and the only disruption in market growth through the years has been foolish government intervention (reducing the gold standard and the requirements to go public thus causing the bubble crash at the millennium). We can go back and forth, but fundamentally, I do my own homework. And while I agree per the OP DM would be set for life at 3 mil (on top of what he already has), I have to disagree this is the 'ceiling' for being 'set for life'.

Plus the players and coaches value his blocking and "goon" work. I think he's getting more bang for his buck in GB than he would anywhere else. That said, he needs to get paid while he has some value attached, wherever that leads him.
Not a broker. In theory, u could throw a dart at the stock exchanges, or buy S&P ETFs, to get these returns. You also are not looking at a person's age, risk tolerance or knowledge.
If you look at the decade of the 70's returns your math doesn't work out. Let's hope none of us experience that decade.
Interesting generalization. 'Stock Market' is incredibly diverse and, accordingly, there are very conservative stocks (usually large sustainable corporations), but 'yes' could also be perceived as high risk if you're going for more 'speculative' companies. But, like choosing other forms of investments you can diversify and still have an incredibly conservative portfolio.
LeSean McCoy made 5 straight pro-bowls. So has Alvin Kamara.
But then you look at the anomaly that is Frank Gore. I don't think we see a running back with that sort of longevity for a long time.
