However if he's looking to set the market I'd probably look at franchising him with an eye toward trading him.

I doubt he keeps up the sack pace he's set so far, but if he does maybe we can get another team to give us a high pick or two (second or a couple of thirds?) for his rights.

Unfortunately this team has continually drafted so poorly that we had to spend tons on free agents, that may stop us from being able to afford Josh, which is a shame, because he's not just a great player on the field, he is off the field, too.

I think they can work something out. You figure, Robinson is out next year. Jenkins more than likely as well.

I don't think his track record demands a market to be set at his position. TJ Watt has that set in stone for now.

I think $16.5M per year for 5 years, maybe front loaded with some heavy incentives towards the backend to motivate him as he gets up there in age is reasonable.

It puts him at 5th highest. Right above guys like Joey Bosa, Rashaan Gary and Randy Gregory. Which is fair.
