CeeDee Lamb 4 year 136m extension + 21m 5th year option = 5 years 157m 31.4m aav 100m guaranteed.
Chase 4 year 160m estimated extension + 10m final year + 22m 5th year option = 6 years 192m 32m aav. 120m guaranteed.
So if Ja'Marr wants more total average per year than Jefferson he needs to bump that 4y 160m slightly higher.
Well it took me a minute to get what he was saying. I think because Lamb and Jefferson were still on they're rookie deals in year 4. That they're salaries for that year should be factored into they're average per year as pertains to Chase. Interesting but I don't see it working like that. But yeah 32-33 mil a year average is not bad and is workable. Give him the impressive looking contract. It really might be good for us fans because it could force the Bengals to get up to speed with the rest of the league. I really don't think they'll hit that 120mil guaranteed # but if they do or get close could push them to start guaranteeing more years in contracts. Also while I certainly don't like what the Browns are doing kicking the can down the road with Watsons deal a bit of that is probably the way to go in the future and alot of teams are doing it.
