Adomitas is also an ERFA, under 1M & cant negotiate with other teams.
Irwin is a RFA, 2.8M qualifying offer, 1st right of refusal, if another team signs him to a higher deal we get a comp pick.
Didn't know that about Adomitas, so that's always good. Not that LS really cost much more than that regardless.
I don't think I would go $2.8m for Irwin. Didn't realize that the RFA tenders had risen that much. $2.8m is original round, and he was a UDFA, so we wouldn't get a comp pick, right? So there I would say non-tender and then offer to sign him for $1.5m or something and if he doesn't accept then sign a depth veteran. The production of the veteran isn't quite as important as the character and experience to help out the young WR room.
If I could also force the Bengals to make a player move that they won't do, I would sign the best C in FA (Cushenberry?) and move Karras to LG.
