I think both points are true. 10 is arguably light if you consider what his assumed growth would be, however 15 is too high.
Where i’m struggling with it is every guy that had a chance to seek greener pastures, up to and including Josh Allen took less to play in Buffalo.
A compromise at the high-end for Cook is in the middle, but he likely feels he’ll get the 15 elsewhere (and he’s probably right about that…31 other teams, surely one of them will overpay).
I’m just watching this situation from afar and am totally judging Cook like my two cats judge me on a daily basis.
Every other player put the team first ahead of their own finances because they want to win…that’s got to count for something.
