Go get some wins first, then you''ll get respect. No one cares enough to watch a 4-12 football team besides the real fans.

It's like fans forgot there are 31 other teams — all with defensive linemen.

It's not a bad thing when our best interior Dlineman feels slighted by the league going into 2019
This, big angry man good for big bad sacks.
Deforest seems like the kind of guy to never actually be angry though. Nice guy honestly.
He is the rare player who doesn't need to "get angry" to be a crazy physical/imposing, dominant force. Just like you said...this guy also seems to be the nicest dude in the world.

I don't know who is supposed to be blocking DeForest Buckner but he might want to start. #9sports

Broncos OC Scangarello on difficulty his O-line had w/SF's DeForest Buckner: "He's probably one of the three or four best interior players in this league so yeah he's always going to be tough to block and if you're not planning around him he's going to cause problems.'' #9sports

Can't believe we haven't paid him yet. They're gonna wait till he's top 10 in the top 100 list. And an all pro so we could make him the highest paid defensive player ever.

Why would he take a deal now? Better for him to wait. Takes two to tango.

Were there any reports that we tried to negotiate?

Buckner said just two days ago that they'd do it either mid season or after the season.
Really no incentive for Buckner to take a deal now.

I'm guessing from the FO's perspective, 12 sacks and 4 wins doesn't compute well with their models. From a simplistic view, it means he overachieved and got "low-impact" sacks or the team was so bad his sacks meant nothing. Assuming this season goes better, maybe they think they'll have more stable numbers to assess Buckner's price. Either way, I think it's worth watching his performance this season. If he can (continue to) prove it with Kocurek and non-tanking games, then a big contract is a win-win for him and the org.

We have seen time after time, the longer you wait, the more you get paid. Buckner will get a bigger deal after the season than he will now.
