I think it's safe to say that nobody on this board was a bigger champion of the Brissett/Dorsett trade than I was. Unfortunately, there are multiple issues with a Dorsett extension:
I'm sure there are others, but those are a pretty good start, and those are all things that need to be worked through before an extension can/should get done.
- He's worth less to the team if Brady isn't coming back
- He may not want to come back to the team that keeps dropping him in the WR hierarchy, if he gets other offers
- He may decide to gamble on bigger money from another team
- The team doesn't really have the space to do it now, and continued good play will keep raising the amount needed
- He may be accepting of being behind the likes of Gordon and Brown, but he may not be willing to be behind Harry next year, because Harry's shown nothing to indicate that he can be anything but a lumbering WR3/WR4 type, to date
