Tee supposedly wants $25-26 AAV.
Burrow's AAV is $55 million, but at the end there is a $68 million year which skews it. So it's closer to $50 million.
The question is can we tie up $110+ AAV in 3 players over the next 4 years?
No, even with the cap going up that is still a lot of money dedicated to 2 WRs and the QB. Sure you can manipulate to cap to fit all 3 in but it wouldnt be wise to do so. One of the biggest issues I have with dedicating so much of the cap to Tee is he has been injured frequently. I think it might make some difference if Tee didnt have the injuries but the Bengals would be dedicating so much of the cap space to fit in a WR with an injury history. I think it is a safer bet to trade Tee, get a draft pick(s) for him, lower the cap space and use the additional money in other areas instead of having so much dedicated to 3 guys one of which pulls his hamstring every year.
