I think the real question is what we would have done if some of the recent draft picks actually panned out. What if Dax was looking like Bates 2.0 and ready to cash in? What if Murphy was a terror off the edge and getting ready to demand a 25 mil payday? What if CTB continued to trend in a good direction in 24? That would have made paying 2 receivers crazy money a lot harder to justify.
Unluckily for us, those guys haven't done squat in a combined 5 seasons. Makes keeping your 3rd or 4th best player a whole lot easier to digest regardless of position.
This is everything. This is the main reason we’re able and willing to sign tee. It’s because no one else deserves big contracts. If our defense was good because of those players, they would let tee walk and draft his replacement, because we wouldn’t need to draft defense.
