I really believe that Carmen and D'Ante Smith will make big jumps in year 2. I was hoping for better results in year 1 so we would not feel like we have to blow a lot of salary cap space protecting Burrow. If they believe in Carman and D'Ante they could sign a couple 1-2 year FA deals without blowing to much salary cap.
If it was my call I would not take the chance on that. I would sign the best FA's we can find even if that mean losing Bates. We have gambled enough with Burrows health and are lucky he will be ready for day 1 next year.
