A good perspective of giving Tee the big money extention

21-25% is not close to being the same as 31-34% no matter how hard you try spin it

I said they were close and they are the closest example of a highly paid trio of QB and 2 WRS.
It's not that difficult, even for someone that wants to trade Tee Higgins for 2025 draft picks. 

Using 2025 as starting point because this is when I expect a Chase extension.

Burrow + Higgins + Chase:
2025 = 30.96%
2026 = 34.15%
2027 = 35.35%

Colts with Manning + Harrison + Wayne:
2006 = 21%
2007 = 25%
2008 = 35%
