Do you count Justin Smith? He got franchise tagged after his rookie contract, and walked right after that.

Marvin Jones and Kevin Zeitler probably fall short of the requirements. I do wonder a bit if being with the Bengals contributed to them not being stars.

I do agree with your general point, but once you asked the question then I was curious to the answer.

Jonathan Joseph was offered basically the same contract he took from the texans 

TAkeo wanted out
Gresham was disappointing at the time he was released.

MArvin jones was offered a contract similar to what he received but wanted to be a #1
Zeitler got overpaid which is why he was traded and released during that contract.

Justin smith i think was one of the Unfortunate scenerios of we paid the wrong guys as we just invested big money into both our OTs i believe the year we let him walk
