Chicago Bears: WR Keenan Allen
I wouldn't call anyone on the Bears overpaid. Their five big-money guys (Montez Sweat, D.J. Moore, Keenan Allen, Jaylon Johnson and Tremaine Edmunds) have all earned their green. That said, Allen has lacked consistency and durability at times and may be beyond his prime ahead of a $23.1 million age-32 season.
Detroit Lions: CB Carlton Davis
The good news for the Lions is most of the overpriced six-year veteran's money is coming from the Buccaneers, who are on the hook for a $14.1 million dead-cap charge for Davis. He'll make a walk-year salary within that range in 2024, despite being injury prone and unreliable in coverage these days.
Green Bay Packers: CB Jaire Alexander
Fellow defenders Rashan Gary and Preston Smith are candidates as well, but both are a little more reliable. Alexander is one of the most talented corners in the league, but he's missed the majority of two of the last three seasons while earning $21 million per year on a four-year deal.
Minnesota Vikings: Edge Jonathan Greenard
I'm just saying there's a chance the 26-year-old linebacker is a big-money bust as a free-agent addition in Minnesota. He's been held to two or fewer sacks in two of his first four NFL campaigns, but he is now making $19 million per year.
