Quote:He's a core player, so I feel he should be locked up. He would still be in his prime after his 2nd contract ends, and his eventual extension won't be expensive.

OK...

He'd still be in his prime if we wait 1 more season too.

He just finished year 2 of a 3 year deal. And is a RFA after that year. Giving us first rights and all that.

If he continues to be a core player, he'll get paid.

 

Meanwhile, a contract like Arobs gives him another year but makes him an UFA after year 4.

 

Still... no need to pay anyone right now. I would wait to see what the cap situation is after free agency this offseason.

Hurns could be extended mid-season, with Arob an offseason priority next season.

 

We aren't at risk of losing Hurns to another team. And if he gets injured, we save money, and if this was an blip instead of consistent, then we'll save the money.

We have some solid other WRs that could make a leap also.
