We have him this year. Can tag him. Then can tag him again. Before Chase is a free agent. Why would we be in a rush to get rid of a top WR?

Tee will be a really good WR wherever he is but unless he averages 1K for about 13 years, he's not going to the HoF. That's no knock, he just hasn't really shown that type of potential. 

If Chase stays healthy, that dude has a chance at the hall. 

No one is in a rush to get rid of him, but if you care more about the overall success of the Cincinnati Bengals, it makes sense, with what they already have, to get capital in return and keep your SB window open. Tee is a grown man and he'll keep the friendships that he has on the team for a lifetime. He needs to do what's in his best interest and the Bengals FO needs to do what's in the Bengals best interest. If keeping Tee hinders them in other areas, then that's a no from me dawg. I want the outcome that is the best for getting rings on players fingers and trophies in the case. 

There is zero precedent for giving a bag to your elite QB and 2 top WRs and being able get a ring. If there was no cap and teams could keep whoever they drafted, as long as they could afford to pay them, hell yeah, sign the dude. But it just doesn't work that way.
