I think it’s a given at this point that Trevor walks at the end of this season if the line isn’t improved, unless, they throw stupid amounts of money at him. Then it becomes a matter of sacrificing his body for the sake of a fat payday. Plus, there’s always the chance Khan sacks Baalke and gets a GM in here who seems to understand that protecting the most valuable asset on the team is priority one.

Really? 

Where do you get that impression? 

It has been widely reported that ownership and front office had a sit down with Trevor early in the off season to talk about what HE wanted to see happen with the team around him and the timing of his contract extension. 

I've seen zero suggestion anywhere (besides speculation) that he's on the verge of walking.

I also can't get down with the notion of being upset we paid Josh Allen (or Trevor next year) more money after they had a great season. 

Screw that.

I'm [BLEEP] STOKED that Allen played like a man possessed last year and earned a big deal. 
We are not in a dire salary cap position and there will always be ways to manipulate the cap.
Count me out of the crowd upset about paying to retain our best players even if it requires a temporary tag. 
Just draft some young talent and all those money concerns diminish rapidly. 
In a week we'll have a better handle on whether to be optimistic in that regard.
