On Tuesday morning, the Los Angeles Rams handed running back Kyren Williams a three-year, $33 million contract extension that contains $23 million in guarantees. The deal makes Williams the eighth-highest paid running back in terms of total dollar value.

For the first time this summer, the Buffalo Bills have a real direct comparison to point to in contract negotiations with running back James Cook. Cook is entering the final year of his deal with Buffalo, and he stated earlier in the offseason that he'd like a deal that pays him $15 million per year.

Does the new Kyren Williams contract make life easier for the Bills when trying to sign running back James Cook?
