Oh, c’mon...

5 years for $110 million with $70 million guaranteed is hardly a disrespectful OR lowball offer.

And you’ve personalized this negotiation far too much. Terms like disrespect, lowball, and AD “problem” are too emotional. It’s just business. Both sides are trying to protect their own best interests and at a very high stakes level, at that.

When players hold out of training camp, preseason, OTAs etc. during contract negotiations or disputes, other players, coaches, team mgmt, agent, and MOST fans realize it is all about the business side of the sport. IF the Rams tag AD twice and let him walk (which I REALLY hope is not what happens) it will be a business decision (wise or not) and will be viewed that way by the professionals.
