*NSFL Season 20 Approximate Value

This is a fascinating article that took a ton of work! The only thing that you didn't really factor in is minimums and how they work. The reason 1000 TPE quarterbacks have a sweet spot of 4m a season is because the minimum at 1000 is 5m a season. Which means that those 1000 TPE QBs who are making 4m signed an extension before hitting 1000 TPE. So they're actually making 1m below minimum value!

Makes sense - I'm still getting a handle on how contracts work and such. Only been around a few weeks. The pay some players were getting felt wonky.

I guess that would make the sweetspot the value you could get the QB at closest to $4 million then - so if the minimum is $5 million then thats still better than paying any more because the steps in pay don't necessarily correlate equivalently with more production/the production you do get doesn't always equal wins.
