I bet Bates is looking for something between 30 and 40 Million but the Bengals are looking between 15 & 20 Guranteed.
Guaranteed money is always the problem when it comes to the Bengals. They will have to change that if they truly want to go all in over the next couple years before it’s time to pay Burrow.
