Point being, "stud WR" is an overrated stat. And "overpaid stud WR" is even worse. One WR does not make a team. And paying out the ass for said WR just means you get to watch a very expensive guy run down the field and not get the ball.
Given the OP guidelines (8 years at $12.5-$16M), you sign him to that and you're on cheap crack.

All studs, all caught at least one TD pass during the championship win. All had kill seasons/playoffs leading to the big game.
