Think about it.
If we have Tee the next 3-7 years and he never got injured you would probably view 25M per as a DISCOUNT.
The ONLY reason you'd be against paying Tee is his availability.
When he plays hes a #1. Every game Jamarr Chase is injured, Tee turns into a MONSTER.
Im sorry but I want that monster on the team. If its a bad deal in 3 years so be it. Itll look like a great deal when its 17-24 the bad guys, and Tee catches a jumpball over 2 people and ties it up.
Why would I pay $25 mil per year to a WR2?
Furthermore, it's hard to find a position group where the Bengals have a better hit rate on than WR. $25 mil for a guy that you can reasonably expect to replace for 4-5 years with a 1st or 2nd round pick doesn't make a lot of sense.
While your example sounds great, why is Tee catching a jump ball over two guys? Because he couldn't get open, that's why.
