Slightly less money? We signed Irv Jr. for 1.75 million dollars. Hurst is making 7 million. Nick Scott is making 4 million a year while Vonn Bell is making over 7 million a year. 

Thats SIGNIFICANTLY more money. 

I mean lets be honest here, the Bengals have absolutely discount shopped so far this off-season. Guys can want to play for Joe Burrow all they want, but if they are getting 60% raises to play elsewhere...then I'd be leaving too.
