Where I saw it is admittedly not credible but that figure makes sense at least as a starting point.
He’s definitely not in 3 years/21M territory and i think he’s also not at 1 year deal status just yet. 2 years seems right but i thought he get closer to 12-14M. If Pittsburg is only offering 10M i don’t see why we wouldn’t match that unless we have completely moved on and trust Charlie Jones.
Boyd fell off a tad last year but still had great hands and routes.
If the asking price is 10M over 2 years i don’t see how that deal screws us. I mean damn cut Nick Scott and that’s 4M right there. Give up on Jackson Carman and boom. That’s your 5M for Boyd right there.
From Boyd’s standpoint no way I’m going to Pittsburg for 5M over Cincinnati for 5M.
Amused no one caught on yet...
He is using the Steelers like free agents used the Bengals when they were blech.
He is making the offer public to drive it up.
Love to have Boyd back on this kind of deal, especially if Tee is not coming back.
