Let me ask you...if you knew your new offered salary was about 70% of your peers and they perform at about the same level as you, would you consider that close enough?

I think if the Bengals were offering $35 mill APY, that's much closer to being "fair," but $28 mill is too far off the contracts that Watt and Garrett got. And their production and age are about the same as Hendrickson, so that can't really be an excuse.
