Nick Bosa. Is 25. And entering the prime of his career. And looking to re-set the market. As he enters his prime. Which is when. A premier player. Should be able. to reset the market.
Slow enough for you?
What part of 'overplaying your hand' has been lost on you here? Chris Jones is going to be 30 when the extension starts. That's LEAVING his prime. You don't re-set the market on a player LEAVING his prime. I've said all along - pay him a little more than Williams or Lawrence even though I think it's likely they'll get you a better return than Jones over 4 years (they must be lighter skinned black guys, eh?). I never begrudged his decision to stay away UNTIL it was being reported that he was staying away because the Chiefs wouldn't meet his exorbitant demands. Tactics are one thing but to request $30 million is simply overplaying your hand badly. It's bad work by his agent.
And if Bosa is out there saying "well this is clearly what the market that was set this season suggests I should get but I won't sign unless I get a 20% premium over that..." then his agent is likewise doing a poor job.
