When you’re given the chance to get a massive lump sum of cash year 1, $60-$80M) to now sit in your bank account and diversify and invest and turn that in to more money- it’s hard to say no to. I think almost all of us would take the chance to sign up for life changing money as opposed to wait an extra year, for maybe a little more per year in the deal.
If Burrow wins MVP and/or the SB this year he would be able to get a deal that would make Deshaun Watson blush. I can't see any scenario where Burrow does anything in 2023 that doesn't greatly add to his value and leverage, and that is why we are sitting here hoping that the guy is more interested in making his fortune doing commercials than playing football.
If we expect Burrow to have a great shot at winning the SB/MVP ect we have to expect that he might want to have those on his resume before he makes the deal he's been working his entire life to make.
