I think Bogi will be here because, if someone wants to sign him the only strategy that might scare Vivek off matching is to go high dollar. But the higher the contract starts, the fewer years offered. So, if a team is serious (and this is besides working a S&T), I think he’ll end up at $20M+ on a 2+1. The thing is, McNair can still argue we should match it, because that’s still a great contract for some of these contenders looking to shed big, sunk cost salary (and attach picks) for a playoff performer around the deadline.
And, for all the Buddy/Philly talk, Bogi makes a lot more sense for them. They just don’t have room for a S&T—would need to be near the deadline.
