This seems to be an emotional fan response. We can all love TB, that doesnt mean his salary makes sense when we have very bad linemen. Patriots fans loved all the guys Belicheck cut in order to go to multiple Super Bowls.  How many WR3 do you think NE had making $10m a year?

This is a very hard business because of cases like TB.  His priority has changed which results in over paying for less production.  I would also point out that Tee and Chase no longer need a mentor like TB. They both have time in the league and now Super Bowl experience. They have passed TB on the priority list.  These 2 and Burrow are all bigger stars and there is only one football to go around. With our wideouts and running back we simply do not value the slot as much as the Chiefs or Rams, and Boyd isnt Hill or Kupp.

Fans like you would hate me as a GM, but I would make sure that dollars are allocated to our top priorities:
#1 Protecting Burrow. Oline, oline, oline 
#2 Providing Weapons for Burrow. WR1, WR 2, RB, TE, and WR3/Slot in that order.
#3 Defense

And with our roster I would not let RB, TE or WR3/Slot prevent the defense from getting it's needed resources.
