So your hypothesis is Burrow will give them a home town discount. That’s possible, but not probable.
Your reasoning behind this deal is cash flow. You want to avoid the $250M you claim the Chiefs needed to put into escrow for their Mahomes’ contract. But, from the information I can find, only $63M was guaranteed at signing (including his salary the first three seasons.) Not $250M.
You proposed signing Burrow to team friendly deal with a $60M signing bonus which is paid in cash at the time of signing.
Your proposed contract for Burrow only reduces the cash needed for escrow by $3M. Or it reduces the Bengals cash flow problem by 4.75%. That’s not much of a cash flow solution.
Not even close, but I gave you my answer. You can come up with your opinion of how to do Burrow's deal.
