Laremy Tunsil wants $19-20 million per season
Last week from the NFL scouting combine, Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle cited sources that said Tunsil wants “at least” between $19-20 million per season. Lane Johnson of the Philadelphia Eagles is the highest paid offensive lineman in the NFL at $18 million per season.
Texans paid a lot to get Tunsil
Just before last season, the Texans shipped a 2020 first-round pick, a 2021 first-round pick, a 2021 second-round pick, cornerback Johnson Bademosi and tackle Julien Davenport to the Texans for Tunsil, wide receiver Kenny Stills, a 2020 fourth-round pick and a 2021 sixth-round pick. The key to that trade, without question, was Tunsil.

Texans, I understand why you went all in. You have Hopkins, Watson, JJ Watt is getting older ... and to a degree if kinda worked. You were sitting in the Division playoffs up 21-0 in the 1st Q against the eventual SB winning Chiefs.
How the hell did you not have a sign and trade or some kind of new LTD agreed to w Tunsil BEFORE the trade.
2 1st rounders .... are walking out your door.
Tough break. The kinda gamble that could set you back a ways.
