Fun question and I'd love to hear the inside conversations for how Duke, Zac, and others within the organization are handling such a conversation.
I'll offer my cursory take from a fantasy-GM lens for the current offseason:
1) Give Burrow his long-term contract.
2) Hold the line regarding Tee and a contract; don't pay him and proceed with him as WR2 under the current rookie deal.
3) Invest a high draft pick in a RB.
4) Continue to find ways to improve the starting OL and the OL depth.
Long-run plans:
1) Tee eventually leaves or is traded.
2) Sign Chase.
3) Balance the offense with the hopefully-emerging RB talent just drafted. I'm envisioning a RB who can make big-play runs that facilitate Burrow to Chase & company wide-open passes.
4) Always focus on building-up the OL.
