I’m sure it’s closer to a 3 year $95M deal with some funny money attached to voidable years.
I could see a $50M signing bonus spread across those 5 seasons and then salaries of $10M, $15M, and $20M for cap hits of:
Y1: $20M
Y2: $25M
Y3: $30M
We’d eat $12M in 27 and $12M in 28 cap space if we don’t pay him crazy money then (which we won’t). Seems like a good deal all the way around.
