The ultimate goal is to win a superbowl and most fans never witness their team win one in their lifetime. By franchising Tee you’re playing for a superbowl and it doesn’t necessarily hurt the future of the team. If Tee walks next year you can use all that money for his contract and put it towards other free agents. The future is bright with Burrow locked up and Chase soon with a ton of cap space. The Rams comparison is apples to oranges. Stafford was 35 at the time and Von Miller was 33 of course they were all in and they traded all there high picks for outside talent. Two 1st round picks and a 3rd for Stafford, two 1st for Ramsey and a 2nd and 3rd for Miller. Tee helps us win a Super Bowl this year and if he walks the Bengals still have all their picks and a ton of cap space vs the Rams with no picks and no cap space.
