If the 4yr/$160m isn't true, and they're still balking, the Bengals should have just taken Pitts if they're not willing to shell out top-of-the-market WR money. Ideally/theoretically the Bengals won't have a top-10 (let alone a top-5) pick for the next 10+ years of Burrow's career. We're probably not getting another Chase anytime soon.

I completely agree.  I think the 4 year/$132m sounds fair for both Chase and the Bengals although I think its on the high side for Chase when you compare the receiving numbers like I just did for 2023 and if you look 2022 isnt much better for Chase.  Chase has had one great season and the next two havent been as good.    When you look at what all the other top WRs have signed for both 4 year and 3 year extensions, the 4/$160m is completely ridiculous so I hope that is not what Chase is after
