2 years left on his deal btw 

 

Yeah and only $77 million guaranteed as where Chase wants $100-$110 million.

2 years out is essentially the new standard for Pro Bowl players of all positions. 

 

Somebody needs to give Duke the memo. 

 

See my response above.

We actually don't know what guarantee number Ja'Marr wants or would take. He's only made it public he wants his yearly average at $35 million and 1 penny.

He said he wants Jefferson's contract plus one penny.  Jefferson has $110 million guaranteed.  Contract, not yearly average. 

 

Bengals' Ja'Marr Chase wants record-setting contract that tops Justin Jefferson deal by one penny, per report

Hell I'll throw in the penny!¡

 

You can most likely hold onto it until next year as Mike Brown stated, "the team would bend over backwards to get a deal done

but a new contract likely wouldn't before the start of the season."  

 

Other's have stated that Mike has nothing to do with negotiations and that could be true but I guarantee that Katie and Troy won't go 

against the old man's word out of respect and I doubt they have the power to do so behind his back not that they would but couldn't.  

 

Since they have been in negotiations, I'd guess the guaranteed money is the hold up.  Me personally, he's not worth Jefferson money.

He's been unable to replicate his rookie season,  Even that was only 1,455 yards whereas both Lamb and Jefferson have put up 1,700+

and 1,800+ yards with lesser QB's.  Hit those kind of numbers THIS year, then in 2025 come talk to me.

Since it appears that the Happy Day will arrive tomorrow at the latest, it is reasonably assured that he will “get what he wants”. It may not be structured exactly that way, but the end result will benefit both he and the franchise (financially). 
 

I always lol@ the wailing and gnashing of teeth during NFL contract negotiations—especially with the Bengals. When MB made the “bend over backwards” comment—of which he has never made before to my knowledge—it was never if this would work out, just when.
 

Few understand high-level negotiations, and fewer don’t get upset about them. Whatever the breakdown of the loot he gets, it is obscenely more than an entertainer should. But that’s entertainment!

We'll see tomorrow.  And like I said in the post you quoted.  "Since they have been in negotiations, I'd guess the guaranteed money is the holdup."

Who are ya'll rooting for in tomorrow's KC-BAL game? The Bengals may end up battling BAL for the division, but may end up battling KC for top overall seed. So there's no way to know which outcome will benefit them more in the end.

 

Do we want to go into KC next week with them coming off a loss? I think they're easier to beat if they're coming off a win. For that reason, I guess I'll hold my nose and be hoping KC wins.

Always want division foes to lose.

Chiefs.

 

Mission #1 is to win the division.  The Woodpeckers will get their share of wins at home. We need them to lose on the road as often as possible.
