Why the **** is Jessie Bates not signed yet?

Or once he signs the tag, then allow him to seek a trade. WE gain 13 million and likely a 2nd round and mid range 2023 draft pick. His agemt can work out a long term deal, there are teams that have the money to pay him and need a safety,

Or he finds out his value is not as high as he thought.
