With corners being so important with it being more of a passing league, I'd lock him up now so we don't risk him having a big year and demanding more money from us based off of a small sample size.

From his perspective, I think he signs for decent money and doesn't risk injury or having a bad season because he hasn't shown enough to have another team toss big money at him based off of his production so far.

You kinda addressed your own statement.  Can you see how capable corners (in a passing league) can demand more money from another team and why he'd choose not to take a safer cheap deal?  I think his reaction to the draft pick was due to his lost leverage in negotiations.  He knows he's the starter this year regardless, but Cincy now has another long term option, so no reason to rush an extension.  If Sanu struggle to gain reps and land a big deal, then think of his current 7.5M for 4-5yrs with more guaranteed money being the type of deal you'd have to get him to bite on.  I can't see how his camp takes say 5M/yr, and I don't know why Cincy ponies up to sign him unless there is less guaranteed money like with Williams.  I just don't see a match for Dre specifically and Zeitler is going to be a chore IMO.  I think Gio gets a deal both sides agree on by the start of the season though and hopefully Eifert as well but that could be a tough one too.
