Update On Burrow's Extension

You have a point about taking up a bigger chunk of the cap every year but it might be our best bet to keep Burrow happy and keep him from handcuffing the team.

I think that's our best bet and a way to keep him happy and keep our organization functioning because, if you think about it, he's the secret to our success and having him take a portion of our overall spending helps us pay him what he's worth. 

He's actually smart if he does that because his salary keeps going up and we're able keep surrounding him with talent to let him succeed and also stay healthy.

Giving him a large salary then giving him an even larger salary the next year then even more the next year doesnt help the team.  If you want to talk about handcuffing the team a percentage contract would do just that.  Instead of just signing Burrow as the highest paid QB getting 53 million for each of the next six years, he would be getting paid something like 51 million, 53 million, 56 million, 60 million, 65 million, 65million instead of the 53 million every year.  How does that help the team and not handcuff them when thats millions that could be spent on other players?   I cant believe anyone would think this is a good idea other than Burrow's agent.
