Who knows...with the Chase and Tee contracts not being done the way most teams do them--low early numbers--maybe they're kind of hamstrung on what they can pay Trey in yrs 1 and 2.
This is the way. Give him a contract extension with a huge upfront cost then just give him the years he wants with the last year either being a team option and/or heavily incentive-laden. So unless the Bengals gave him a 1 year extension and said take it or leave it, I don't understand why there's no compromise (unless it's Trey that doesn't want to compromise)
