This is another mess up by the FO that they now do not have a solid plan to fix. They probably figured $25-28 million per year would get it done. I would guess that the number they are still offering. Knowing how the FO works and reading this quote form Trey makes me believe they are low-balling him for sure:
“I'm not going to apologize for the rates of the defensive ends being paid in the National Football League”
I heard 32 mil per year is what Trey was offered, that is plenty for him at his age. Agree that the deals for Madd Maxx and Garrett probably threw
the FO off, but Trey getting double of what he is currently getting sure isn't unfair to the guy and that is what they offered reportedly.
Like always it is guaranteed money holding these things up. Just like it was with Ja'Marr and Tee.
