so at first i had a heart attack when i saw this viral tweet

because holy shit's that's 40 million per year ja'marr!!!

but then i saw joe goodberry (whom i have a love/hate relationship with 🥲) breaking it down on his twitter

and

so like, frankly, 32 per year over the next 6 years is incredibly reasonable for what ja'marr has brought and will continue to bring to this team! plus he can get the headlines that he's making more than justin (which i'm sure is important to him lmao) but he won't actually be (which i do think is fair. argue all you want about who the actual better receiver is, justin does have stats on his side at this point).

i'm sure the sticking point with the brown family is all that guaranteed money. but they DID give joe the most guaranteed money ever, and i think they also gave orlando more guaranteed money than they ever have for a tackle? i think they are getting there in terms of keeping up with how the market works these days, but they're gonna be kicking and screaming the whole time 🙃

#tldr: i think given how long the deal would be - 6 more years!! this is a good deal for both sides.#plus the combined cap hits for him and joe wouldn't be as extreme as they both seem at first glance #(don't ask me how all that works. but i trust joe goodberry on this stuff.)#and ja'marr's ego would be satisfied because all the headlines would say he makes more than justin lmao #wins all around!! come on bengals let's just get this shit done please!!!#of course the caveat is assuming the local radio guy does have a source with ja'marr's camp #but that's not crazy to assume tbh.#ja'marr chase
