They can tag him but I'm not a fan of doing that. Imo if the player earns his money and you're not willing to pay that amount, then let him go get it elsewhere.
Careers are short in the NFL and you have to get yours while you can and Tee deserves his payday.
For what its worth I believe he will get around $18-20 million a year. As Pistons pointed out the list shown includes rookie contracts that make it appear lower somewhat.
I think the Bengals can afford him. The cap is going up.
People forget that we paid Palmer the highest salary in the league along with Willie and Levi, Chad AND resigned TJ... with a much lower cap.
We can definitely do it. Boyd and Mixon's future may be the ones we sacrifice.
