It is interesting that a Move TE which has a $10.8M guaranteed salary for 2025 is being speculated as a trade target for the Bengals. Gisecki produced similar numbers for a quarter of the salary. But, Gesicki will get ~ $7-8M annually next year.
If Pitts agrees to an extension, and understands that he is not producing at $10.8M, and is willing to give some of it back over the extension - then I think the Bengals would bite.
So basically, he would have to agree to a 4 year $24M extension before the trade is done. The overall payout for the 5 years would be around $35M, with annual average of $7M.
It is time that the Bengals stop the revolving door at TE and get a gifted, talented guy that may excel with a change of scenery.
