They were talking on NFL radio the day before yesterday, and someone called talking about how the Bengals should pay him Garrett money. They laid it right out, and said, "Would you take Hendrickson over Garrett? No. Would you take Hendrickson over Crosby? No. Would you take Hendrickson over Parsons? No. They laid out the top 5 Edge Defenders and Trey was not in the top 5, so why pay him like a top 5. A top 5 Edge gives you the sacks, but also is good against the run. Trey's more of a one trick pony. I'd give him the 28, or maybe even go to 30, but no more than that.

How many times does this need to be disproven before people stop typing it?

He's not so much less than other EDs that he should be paid that much less. 

He has 45% less tackles since '21 than Crosby.
He has 26% more sacks since '21 than Crosby.

He has 22% less tackles since '21 than Garrett.
He has 5% less sacks since '21 than Garrett.

He has 33% less tackles since '21 than Hunter.
He has 21% more sacks since '21 than Hunter. 

He has 5% less tackles since '21 than Watt. 
He has 31% more sacks since '21 than Watt. 

He has 19% less tackles since '21 than Parsons.
He has 32% more sacks since '21 than Parsons. 

This year, being paid on the "extension" he will make;
47% less than Garrett.
41% less than Hunter.
41% less than Crosby.
38% less than N.Bosa.
25% less than J.Hines-Allen. 
25% less than B.Burns.
25% less than TJ Watt (before impending new contract) this should rise to Garrett levels soon. 
14% less than M.Sweat.
12% less than R.Gary. 
9% less than A.VanGinkel

Thats 7 guys that make at least 25% more than Trey. 4 guys that make at least 38% more than Trey and 9 guys that make at least 12% more than Trey. 

You all keep sucking at the Mike Brown teet and thinking they're a well run organization. I'll continue to understand the truth that they are, at every turn, a penny-pinching, miserly, old fashioned mom and pop run organization that is set in their ways and doesn't give 2 shits about what fans want.
