2. You can still negotiate the longer contract after tagging someone. And I am sure we will continue to try to get a long term deal done. 

As to why do it so early? Why wait? Make it clear, both to Tee, his jerk agent, and other teams he will be in stripes next year. WR2 does not have to be on the front burner for the FO. We have clarity on our working cap number and can go forward. If a deal gets done, the number will get better, not worse.

They have been trying for a while, I prefer to try to seek a trade and get something for him.
