Chase will be the best WR in the NFL if he keeps it up and will HAVE to be paid like it.

We will see on Tee. 

If we pay Bates all that money and he plays like he did last regular season for the rest of his career we are screwed.

I don't trust the man anymore. You go ahead and gamble on him. I won't. He made his bed.

Dax Hill WILL play better than Jessie Bates did last regular season for the rest of his long career with us. I trust this more.


Same here, just bad energy going on. I wish he just signed the Tag so we could trade him honestly.

I agree with you about Hill but what's the outcome going to be now?

Do we continue with the tag and just hope that someone comes calling for a trade once he signs it or hope a team suffers an injury at safety and then offers a trade for him mid-season?

Is our front office looking at trade offers? Will any team pay him the kind of money he wants?

I'm at the point where, if we can't get him to sign the tag to trade him, just cut bait and say the hell with it.

No other team will offer him that kind of money, and, the closer we get to the season, the smaller the offers will get. Call his bluff because, like you said, he made his bed.
