No team, not a single one, has locked a guy in to an underpaid rookie deal for 6 years.

Several teams have honored the 3 year option and extended players.


....

Khalil Mack has asked for an extension and hasn't been given one yet.

I thought Mack deferred that and is up for a normal 4th year extension.

...

Mack didn't defer anything. Really there is nothing to defer. Players automatically become eligible for an extension after their 3rd year.

Here is an article talking about his eligibility.

Now, it's time for the Raiders to figure out how much to pay the man who is likely the best player on their team: star pass-rusher Khalil Mack.

Like Carr and Jackson, Mack just finished his third season in the NFL, so he is eligible for an extension right now."

Here are two articles talking about the Raiders delaying giving him an extension for business reasons. Essentially, they didn't sign him because he was too big to fit under the cap, not because he didn't want one.
