With what? You answer that first.

I will bet we franchise him near 6M, and see what we have in 2015. Lets not forget Jimmy CANT leave.

Sounds cruel? If I were Jimmy I would hold out for the Franchise in 2014, then take my 8 year 60M contract (Gronkowski + #s).

It may not be there there now, but neither was the $5m or $6m we have now. That's what GM's are for. He'll figure it out. If he already made an offer to Jimmy then there has to be something to offer.
