Here's an interesting story I saw Spotrac run....of the highest paid guys at positions who is in the playoffs...this is highest average paid player (just so you know criteria of how they measured it) Source cite HERE

Aaron Rodgers QB - NOPE
Christian McCaffrey HB - YUP
Kyle Juszczyk FB - YUP
Tyreek Hill WR - YUP
Darren Waller TE - NOPE
Trent Williams OL - YUP
Aaron Donald DL - NOPE
TJ Watt EDGE/OLB - NOPE
Shaquille Leonard ILB - NOPE
Jaire Alexander CB - NOPE
Derwin James S - YUP
Justin Tucker K - YUP
Michael ****son P - YUP
Charley Hughlett LS - NOPE

Here is the crazy thing.....for the QBs
Russell Wilson is 2nd - NOPE
Kyler Murray is 3rd - NOPE
DeShaun Watson is 4th - NOPE
Patrick Mahomes is 5th - YUP
Josh Allen is 6th - YUP
Derek Carr is 7th - NOPE
Dak Prescott is 8th - YUP
Matthew Stafford is 9th - NOPE
Kirk Cousins is 10th - YUP

Only 4 of the top 10 are in the playoffs...

HB 6 out of 10 IN (one is Fournette...so...)
WR 5 out of 10 IN
TE 7 out of 11 (two tied at 10th)
OL 4 out of 10
OT 3 out of 10

EDGE 5 out of 10
DL 4 out of 10
ILB 4 out of 11 (tie again)
S 5 out of 10
CB 6 out of 10
