Johnson now says he wants to be the highest paid CB. Last year he requested a trade. Lorin Cox predicts he will be tagged. If that happens, will he stage a holdout? I agree with Cox that, if they are currently just $2-3 million apart on annual salary, Poles should just go ahead and get it done. It is costing more now than it would have cost last year.

100 mil is not enough? Damn.
Not if somebody else is making $105. Johnson thinks he’s better and deserves more.
Could of locked him down way cheaper at the start of the year.
Just another example of Poles shooting himself in the foot.
Not far off. Poles held the line earlier on "not overpaying" and laid out what was holding them back -- namely INTs.
Then JJ went out and delivered exactly what they asked for.
You asked for it; you got it.
So now STFU Ryan and pay him top-5 money. You could have probably gotten him for a couple million less 3 months ago but you issued a challenge and he answered it. Now you are stuck.
Bite the bullet and pay him. Gonna be >$20m AAV now.
