I think this is really just the critical juncture which indicates we just need to move on from Tee. He isn't going to sign some team-friendly deal which alleviates the amount we're spending on WRs. The guy wants to make the bag and wants long-term security. Fair enough.
My opinion was the same at the outset... we're paying Burrow to be the man, and that includes making it work with lesser talent. If he really needs a stupidly stacked WR group, then he isn't the guy we think he is. Signed Burrow, we should also lock Chase in when that comes around, but the rest of the group is going to largely have to be guys that Burrow makes look good. That's pretty normal procedure when you have a Franchise QB on franchise money unfortunately.
With Tee, get the highest realistic return we can get and move forward imo. This is the nature of the NFL.
