The problem is if Burrow demands too much money the team wont have enough to put in other areas like getting Burrow a nice O-line and he could have his knee shredded again. I dont blame anyone for getting as much as they can but at some point it becomes detrimental to both the team and player.
Look at Tom Brady, he never went after the max he could get and he was the best of them all. He was still paid top tier but he also made sure the team had enough money they could get talent around him to succeed. Its ultimately up to Burrow to determine how much he wants but I would hope he takes a cue from Brady.
