Is it too early to lock up Horn to a long term deal?

[kungfoodude]

I would say there are a lot of factors at play here. While it is wonderful that he has been healthy all year, it is also the outlier, technically. 

Additionally, in his very limited playing time he has largely had flashes of elite play but not consistently. 

It's hard to envision a scenario we don't extend him.....except if he wants a top 10 CB contract. That's going to be a tough pill to swallow.

He has missed alot of games 14 in 2021 5 in 2022 12 in 2023 and i cant remember if he has missed any this year but would be scary to sign him long term big money.

He’s constantly locking up the opposite teams number 1 receiver and very rarely being thrown at.

Horn’s 70.1 grade is 31st in the NFL at his position according to pff

I'd like to see another healthy season out of him.  The PI/holding calls are racking up too.  But I could see us extending.

Trade his ass

Given the injury history and tendency toward penalties is be wary.

[CRA]

he has barely suited up for 50% of our games.  It matters pending how much of our cap and resources go that way.  If he cost in the ballpark of a Surtain? No thank you.  Let someone else 

And as far we know what happens when we let talent walk away or trade them…..that’s a mixed bag.  

should we of paid Norman, Bradberry at CB? They probably had earned the right to be called better than Horn at that moment of the decision.  Do we regret that? Do we regret Star walking? Can take it back to Spoon.  Flip side is probably Peppers.

I'd listen to offers but I'd like to lock him up to a reasonable deal 

[PleaseCutStewart]

If anything, too late. I was hoping we would do it last off-season when his value was at an all-time low

Would love to see us sign him to say a 4 year extension structured in a way that pays him most of the money in the first two years with an out after the 2.

It protects us to injuries or penalty issues, it gives him a lot of money, and it also gives him an ability to renegotiate in 2 years if he plays at a high level, and if he does, we'd be happy to pay it to him again.

If we get a pass rush we don't need a lock down corner.   Invest the money on the line.  

I would also avoid a long term contract for this business decision player who managed to pretty much stay off the field until this contract year.  I don't believe it's a coincidence.
