I just read that it’s reported the Bengals are around $36-$37 million/year average for Chase. I know that guaranteed $ etc play a big role in negotiations but I can’t see Chase taking that average salary. I would think they are trying to get to $40 million per but might come in a lower.
I am beginning to wonder if this front office will get any of the 3 signed this off season. I know it’s early but even if they do get deals done it would be stupid to drag their feet and wait until it’s well into FA/draft time. They need to give Chase the big $ and see what they can do with Tee and Trey. If they have to trade one or both of them they need to make that decision and start fielding offers.
My optimism for this off season dims each day as I see and remember how this FO works. Hope they surprise me and get some things done here before FA starts so they know what they have and what they need.
