As Florida fans are officially on Jadan Baugh watch to see whether or not the star running back is going to return for the 2026 season, there is a fair question to ask when budgeting a team in the modern NIL era:
Just how much should one spend on a single running back?
Conventional wisdom would say not to overspend on a single running back because the return on investment usually isn’t high.
But if Florida has paid attention to the NFL at all, there is an argument to be made to pay Baugh whatever his asking price may be.
