If Terry doesn’t get a new deal and comes in on current contract; he’s gone next year. True, we could franchise him but I think the franchise amount for wr in 26; will
Be around 30-31.

Team doesn’t want to pay even that???

I’d do a short 2 year extension and a bonus to boost this year; so averages are closer to what Terry wants.

Denver just gave Sutton a new contract - 4 years for $92m, the contract details are still unknown at this moment. Sutton will be 30 years old later this year and is a proven reliable receiver, just like McLaurin. It doesn't bode well for McLaurin as he is looking for more than what Sutton just got.

Looks like Terry got activated off the PUP. So either a deal is close, or the team is ratcheting up the pressure on him to do more than just show up. I hope it is the former and not the latter.

They arent on the same level IMO, Sutton to me is a tier down, at least so that contract means nothing to me but who knows how it will impact negotiations.

Heard earlier he wont take less than DK got... can't blame em.

Hope it turns out well.

I expect Terry to get franchised at this point if Schefter's report is accurate of him wanting more than Metcalf 33 million plus annually. A trade only occurs if Peters gets a super offer. I don't think any team wants to pay him what he wants so I doubt a trade. Can't stand the hold in strategy. If he's trying to out duel Peters not going to happen.

Metcalf is 3" taller and 2 years younger, and his deal (5/150) is really 3/86.5, ~29m/year. I think 27-30m is realistic; I think more is probably too much (31/32 is high, but I wouldn't complain). He's a top 16 WR, but I wouldn't say he's top 6.

If he doesn't lower demands, I expect a trade or more than likely franchised.

I think it's something of a counter argument that he's suffered with some pretty poor to average QB play since he was drafted but has averaged over 1000 yds per season in his 6 years. I'd say that performance in context is top 10 worthy. Yes, the current management were not here during 5 of those 6 years, so as a business it is always what have you done for me lately/are you likely to do in teh near future. But given his performance and standing with the team, they can't treat him like an also ran and expect him to be happy. If we don't pay him someone will and then we'll be the ones losing.

If we don't pay him someone will and then we'll be the ones losing.I don't see him getting the contract he wants from any team after another season or 2 considering he's likely going to be franchised. Almost unheard of for a wr to get a huge deal at 31 plus years of age.

Some how the Bengal's are going to sign Trey Hendrickson before we sign Terry

Interesting....
