Hopefully, the stadium naming rights deal goes through, which will give the Bengals enough liquid money to more readily put those guarantees in escrow, because the guaranteed money thing is going to kill us as these players' contracts come due. Burrow and Chase are going to expect some guarantees and I hope the front office doesn't screw this up because of their old fashioned bargaining techniques.
Alternatively, I hope that the next CBA no longer requires so much of the guarantees be put down on the day the contract is signed.
