Yup.
While I don't buy it, if that's indeed something Hill's willing to do, you take that shit and RUN.
If for no other reason than you've cut Brown's legs out from under him in contract negotiations. Now the threat of Hill on the tag evaporates so you've got Brown for this year at $14 millionish and next year at $18 millionish for a total of $32 million over the next two years.
If I can lock my LT in for 2 years at $16 million per and another 3 years at $23 million/per after that, it gives me 5 years, $101 million. It's more than Ronnie Stanley got so that should satisfy Brown and it's largely a sane figure. It uses the leverage from the tags to its fullest effect.
