He realistically has 1 more year to do the 1 year deal thing. Going into the market at 28 can still get you a big payday but by 29 you're gonna struggle a bit.
But that 1 more year needs to be huge and if I'm him, I'm not coming to KC as the #3 pass catching option for that 'make good' year. I'm going somewhere like SD at worst to replace Evans (where Allen's likely to get hurt as well). Hell, maybe even Jacksonville where he can just hog targets.
If I'm taking a 1 year deal it's not to be second fiddle because his earning power could really tank.
I'd probably take the most money I can get over the first 3 years if I'm Cooper. The risk likely isn't worth the reward.
