De'Von Achane's extension with the Miami Dolphins makes the New York Jets' deal with Breece Hall look even better.

The New York Jets placed the non-exclusive franchise tag on running back Breece Hall earlier this offseason. That bought general manager Darren Mougey time to negotiate a long-term contract extension with Hall's representation. A deal was reached with Hall last week, as he inked a three-year, $ 45.

75 million extension that secures his future in East Rutherford . Hall believes in what the Jets are building . The extension will pay Hall approximately $15.

25 million per season. If fans thought the Jets overpaid, a recent contract extension within the division says otherwise. The Miami Dolphins recently signed running back De'Von Achane to a four-year extension worth up to $68 million.

We're still awaiting the complete financial details of Achane's extension with Miami, but the $68 million indication means the contract is worth $17 million per season. That's roughly $1. 7 million more per year than Hall's deal, and it's also one year longer than Hall's extension with the Jets.
