They cant afford to let him walk and get nothing. If Tee doesnt sign a long term deal this year does anybody think his asking price is going to be lower next year? If it is, it is because he had another hamstring injury and missed more playing time. At that point would you want to give Tee a long term contract next year? IMO they have to trade Tee at this point, get a draft pick(s) and use the money saved to beef up the offensive line while drafting a WR that we will have for the next few years.
I'm not a fan of giving an injury prone WR anything close to 20/year including Tee. Tag and trade and let someone else deal with it while we get picks and move on and get better. You don't need 2 elite WR's to win a SB.
