It's not really that bad when you consider that he's a Top 2 SS in the league. It's truthfully discounted, because S isn't considered a premium position. Good, but not great, starting CB's get $10+ mill a year, so $7 mill a year for an elite S seems like a bargain to me. Plus, there are other things that can be done to lower his cap hit. For example, if the Bengals offered 4 years, $28.5 mill right now as an extension, they would gain an extra year to spread out the cap dollars. With his $1.5 mill salary this year, it would basically be a 5 year, $30 mill deal that average out to around $6 mill a year.
