Do we attempt to extend Diontae this season?

Naturally the KC chiefs fans think Diontae will be traded to them before the deadline because they are spoiled but anyway.

Do you think these past two games have shown that Diontae can be here for the long haul or do we wait and see how the season plays out.

I think an extension would be good to keep offensive pieces consistent.

Johnson + Mingo + 2025 4th 

for

Worthy

Let the Xaviers unite to solidify our WR room for the next 4.5 years. 

Their cheap contracts would allow us to compete for signing Higgins. 
 

Higgins/Legette outside with Worthy in the slot is likely the best WR corp ever for our franchise.

See if Buffalo is dumb enough to trade a 1st for him at the trade deadline.

 

If not you keep him. He has a problem with drops, but my goodness this dude is elite at getting open. We haven't had that kind of WR in a while. I like him, but I do recognize he could also be a valuable piece for a draft pick.

 

I'm cool either way as long as the value makes sense trade or extension.

I'd trade him for a 1st, but no way in hell for a 2nd and some scraps. No thanks. We have WRs who can produce right now, and an aging QB. Don't take Dalton's weapons away with the idea of slowly bringing some rookies in to learn. If Dalton is clicking with a vet, then the vet stays unless we get a crazy offer. 1st round pick would be a crazy offer, but anything less and hell no to that.

I'd shop him to contenders with need at the deadline. He's playing well but he's a headcase. That's why the Steelers were happy to ship him off for a 6th. I'd honestly rather have good draft compensation than sink big guaranteed money into a guy who might be a taking time bomb. I'd definitely keep him through the season and take the comp pick afterwards if we were developing a young QB but that's just not the case.

      I don't think it's any weird or unique clause, it's the offset language, same thing so many contract disputes are over. It just means that including it, if a player is cut and then signed by another team, the original team would be able to subtract how much they're getting paid by the new team from what they still owe him on their guaranteed money. For example, it's why Russell Wilson signed for the minimum last year with the Steelers as that was included in his Denver contract.  So if he signed with the Steelers for $1 million, he'd get $1 million less from the Broncos, if it was $2 million, he'd get $2 million less, basically he couldn't make any more money than he was already going to make, so you sign for the minimum to not take unnecessary cap room from your new team while giving extra cap room to your old one. The problem with trying to include it in rookie deals is that a team trying to include it, it says they think they don't really believe the player will make it 4 years with the team before they cut them.  And this usually comes up with one or two rookies in most seasons, the difference is it's usually handled much more quietly and not as public and ugly as this one. The other difference is that it's happening with the Bengals, which I believe I saw are one of the few (or only?) team that doesn't have protections for rookies in rookie and mini camps to be able to participate even if they haven't signed their contract yet.  The other teams have injury protections that allow them to still play, but the Bengals do not, which is also why this one is so public and ugly, as most the time this happens, the rookie is still participating in the rookie and subsequent mini camps, giving them more time to get the contract done before training camp when they'd then hold out.
