At this point in time 88 makes the most sense to get done considering they do have leverage over 11. I thought they get 4 deal done by March 13th because I figured that’s what the FO would do, but that came and went along with FA. I don’t think 4 deal gets done until after the season if at all. I think his extension rests on the outcome of of the season in 24.

It's like some dudes treat talking on a message board like it's some big game sport.
Lol.
Hey! If you're having fun and nobody is hurt, go for it. Doesn't do much for me, but everyone is different.

They have no intention to pay all of them.
They will pay the 2 guys that haven't proven to be total losers yet.
Dak is the odd man out.
Dak knows it to. He went from "I'm confident a deal will get done" to "I can only control what I can control" in about a month's span.

Who says Jerry’s the holdup on Lamb’s contract? I read that Cee Dee wants to wait until Jefferson is signed.

Lamb is gonna get his money, dont expect a discount. He has at least two big contracts left in his career and expect him to take advantage of it. As others have pointed out, how can you pay Lamb 30 plus million, Dak 50 plus million, and Parsons 30 plus million?
Also another player that potentially is in for a big payday depending on this season is Daron Bland, he continues to progress like he has and he's gonna want a contract like Diggs too.

Diggs was going into the last year of his deal last year. No fifth-year option like they had with Lamb.

Not sure I understand the point you are trying to make. Diggs was signed going into his last year (no fifth-year option). Lamb will be signed going into his last year (fifth-year option). My comment was on the possibility of signing Parsons to an extension this year, when they picked up his fifth-year option, putting him under contract for the next two years. Signing Parsons now does not fit the team's MO. They only make such a move when there's a holdout, like with Elliott.
What they seem to like to do with first-round picks (if they are worth it) is pick up the fifth-year option like they did with Parsons this year and then sign them to an extension the next year to lower that cap hit. Right now, Lamb's cap hit is $17 million, so they want to lower that. Parsons' is $5.4 million, so they are totally OK with that.
