I agree with BenZoo that the extra year of control raises Mac's value, but I think you're right about how the Bengals will play this hand.

That said, you'd think Mac's feelings would be somewhat of a factor. He'll be 27 in September and his career (in his mind at the very least) is dwindling away on the bench.
