Thanks, weird to me that he is getting paid that much while not having a lot of production.
Must be because the Stains think he is a talent and the QB's have ignored him. Njoku should be cheaper than 10 mil a year
from that production. You are right on this screwing with the TE market. Sucks, thought for sure we could bring back Uzo
before this, now I am not so sure.

No doubt, we can Draft decent TE's and might even find a gem for cheap that Burrow could make into a great one.
TE's are a bit like RB's and CB's, you can draft them and save yourself a lot of money.
We need proven O-lineman this FA, all else doesn't matter even if I want Uzo and Bates back.

We will see how we go about it. We are different than the Stains. I think we can get better deals and be able to bring in
bigger FA's cause of Burrow and with our Cap situation we can afford to do a lot of things. Just have to get the O-line
solidified and everything else is icing on the cake.
