Veach needs to get this decision done now bc Sauce Gardner is probably gonna get $31 million making it even more untenable.
Get this figured out now Veach.

And the leverage is pretty substantial now.
He makes $2.7 million in base salary this year. So, what, $150K per week as a game check? Nice money, to be sure.
But if you offer him a $40 million signing bonus in what would amount to $100 million or so in effective guarantees....man, that's gonna turn his head.
That's money NOW. In his pocket tomorrow.
Or he can make about $15 million over the next two seasons. He could more than double that tomorrow with the stroke of a pen. And have it in his bank account that evening.
That's gotta mean something.
