Yeah, right.
When you have the talent to do a job and you're one of the best at that job, you want to be compensated to your talent, relative to your peers.
Full.Stop.
This is essentially the point i was trying to make with the Burrow comparison. Whatever million dollar amount sounds good but the market gets set. Burrow could take 28 million per and never have to worry about money but that's not the market # for QBs. Trey was the sack leader last year and right now is making the salary of the 20th DE.
