He should get something like Michael Thomas' contract

I man, if we are going to give our kicker and our FB up north of $5 million per year, and our QB $27.5 million per year.
I would say Kittle is easily worth about $19 - $22 million per year.
Which would break us from a salary cap stand point.

I believe there's been one player that has ever had a FGTD multi-year deal and it was cousins.
Not gonna happen for a TE at the amount of cash it sounds like he's looking for.

What? Why? He's not lining up a crossed a teams #1 Cb all game and catching 150 balls a yr.
He's amazing and should be the highest paid TE in football without question, he should break the martlet there.
He's not gonna find a single team in FA that's gonna give him a $96M deal.

I love Kittle. I hope he plays his entire career with the 49ers.
But, it's a team sport, and I am not allotting 17M, much less 20M, on a TE, no matter how impactful he may be.

His agent should stop wasting time with the 49ers negotiating, and try and get him a commercial deal like with Wrigley for Skittles or something like that. Should be good for $5 million extra each year in endorsements.
I think the cash cow would be pro wrestling money.

Huh?
Since when is $27M a lot for a FQB? You got Dak asking for like $40M per yr lol.
He's never gonna find a team in FA that's gonna throw him Julio Jones money. His value is highest here. $15M per and a little over $30M GTD is completely shattering the TE market.

I hope Dak gets every dollar he can. For us, it is a win, because Dallas isn't very good with him making less than 1 million, so him going up that high means he loses weapons on his team to off set his salary. If I was Dallas, I would let him play under the franchise tag this season, and if they're still a non contender, then I would look to draft a QB, while letting Dak walk in FA, and perhaps keep Dalton for insurance.

5 years $90-100M
Kittle is a top 10 player in the game and the TE market has been b******t for years, hasn't budged in like 6 years. If I were George I wouldn't participate in anything until I'm paid.
The whole "TE market" argument is stupid. You're paying the player, not the position. It's not like Kittle is a punter. He's the engine that makes the entire offense go both passing and rushing.

Kittle should just create a shell company that the York's can funnel money to, to protect our salary cap like Tom Brady.

5 yrs $90-$100M haha now that's stupid.
So should we pay juice $50M because he's a great player and not care he plays FB? Should we pay a RB $80M if they're the best player at RB??
Kittle gonna sit out for 3 yrs? He didn't make 1st rd money to sit out and chill.
