Jefferson and Lamb both saw 180+ targets in their best seasons. Chase has never seen anywhere close to that. It will be interesting to see just how much Chase’s target share goes up once both Tee and Boyd are gone.

But as Synric pointed out, it’s not really about whether he is the 2nd, or 3rd, or 4th best WR or wherever exactly you want to rank him. It’s about being in the same tier as those guys, and that means he’s going to be paid accordingly. Which is why it would be smart to get it done now, as the price is only going to go up.
