I don't think they did a great job on his extension though.
2022 was the year Trey was paid "the best" of his time here. He was #6 in cap hit and he was making half of what the top guy was making. He was also only making about 75% of what the #3 guy made.
Every other year he's been around #10 in cap hit. You said he's a "steal". That's Bengals FO mentality and something i'm opposed to; them signing and keeping players 'on the cheap'. I mean, that's literally the debate here. They're cheap and they do everything they can to minimize paying salaries while trying their damndest to not have to pay market value for top players.
