All depends on aj Dillon , if he steps up in his rookie season then Aaron Jones will have a hard time getting the big contract , but if Dillon doesn’t show much Aaron will get a boatload !!

They're already trying to pay Jones, so I think they get an agreement done, because the team is probably trying to work towards him, so I'm thinking he gets $12 million per year deal.
That or they go to FA, and Jones either gets a mega deal from some other team or comes back to the Packers for slightly less.
But if we don't get Jones, back up plans are Alvin Kamara and Dalvin Cook. Then Marlon Mack, Phillip Lindsay and Kenyan Drake... and then James Conner, Kareem Hunt, Chris Carson and Matt Breida.
Someone is going to get a really good deal in next year's FA RB market if hey wait, only downside is it might be a short term deal, but Broncos got Melvin Gordon for a cheaper two year deal than he turned down the year before. But I guess Packers really want their guy.... and depending on how you measure them, I think one could argue Jones and Kamara have been the best two so far.
