Are you going to try and extend Chase next year or let him wait while you extend Tee? Also, you have guys on defense to worry about extending. Are you going to let Reader and Awuzie walk? The defense is what has carried this team in the playoffs, not the offense.
Higgins' extension would start in 2024.
Burrow's in 2025.
Chase's in 2026 (no matter if it is signed next summer or the year after).
We will find the $$$ by letting good but not great starter level guys get replaced. Plus the cap will explode.
Some will stay, some will go.
2024: Jonah $12.5, Boyd $10.3, Chido $8, Reader $15.
2025: Mixon $8.5, Collins $8.6, BJ Hill $10.8 mil, Hilton $7.5, Karras $7.4.
