So I doubt it happens, but in the hypothetical world, I have to ask: What does Chase get this team in trade? He wants, apparently a lot more than JJ. We all had Jefferson costing multiple firsts and then some.
If things get completely sideways, would you rather have Chase eating up 37 mil in cap every year or a couple more first rounders making peanuts for a few seasons? The young guys seem much more valuable to me.
It's painful, but it might be the smart play. We reaped his productive rookie years. Churn him out like in baseball and put another franchise on the hook for his asking price. Cycle in some young, hungry guys for our 50m qb, then do it again in 3 years.
This stuff sucks right now. It's going to suck worse when we end the year with a glaring need. Maybe an OL. Probably a DT. Likely a pass rusher. Maybe we can't afford to keep CTB. Things will tighten up cap-wise when these guys get their money.
A deal will make the current drama go away. It will materialize again when the offseason gets here and the team cries poor due to the guaranteed money they've tied up in 2 players.
Resentment is born this week. It metastasizes in time. The only cure is a title. Beyond that, Chase may be shitting on his legacy in a way that can't be reversed.
