DJ played 36 out of 65 games his 1st 4 years. He's a top player who has had injury issues. It's a tough contract to get right for both sides.
Meanwhile we're getting better at playing without him which was also a need, signed or not.
It looked like it would "get done soon" 10 days ago. Not so much today. Agent Mulugheta is a fast rising top money maker in his field.
I'm not holding my breath.

I wish we knew the real numbers and what the gap is.
I generally feel you have to take your chances (guaranteed money) with elite talents.
if it bites us in the arse, we'll have to take that gamble..005 Brock Bowers, TE/HB/SR Georgia

#10 if far far more valuable to the team than Derwin at this point. Any guarantee more than three years and I could just walk away from a deal with Derwin. Derwin has to play for us this year and we could franchise tag him for next year so after two years we could let him walk. Why does Derwin need such a big guarantee if he's solid? This is the first time where I think management stubbornness is warranted.

only question for me is whether Derwin plays without the extension
