Tee’s market price

The Bengals are paying Joe Burrow 55 million per year.  This means the Bengals would have 53 million left to pay Chase and Higgins if comparing to what the Eagles are spending for their QB + top 2 WRs.  The Bengals could give Higgins his 25 million per year which would leave Chase 28 million per year.  You think Chase would go for that to keep the gang together?  Justin Jefferson got 35 million per year.  If you give Chase a better contract at 36 million per year that leaves Tee 17 million per year.  The comparison to the Eagles isnt valid because the Bengals would end up spending several million more on the QB + WR1 +WR2

Time for another look at the Bengals cap outlook

Assuming the Bengals extend/sign:
- Tee (4yr, 28M APY)
- Chase (4yr, 35M, maybe needs to be higher)
- Hendrickson (2yr, 26.5M)

In 2025 they'd have $87M in space with 52 players rostered.

They'd have to fit 25 players into ~$95M… pic.twitter.com/HzUKcHdVh9

I just saw this earlier and was wondering where to post it. I guess as a response here is as good a place as any. But I don't think the difference in what is relatively a few million that big of a deal. Especially considering the cap continuing to rise.
