Now he’s older and has had some injuries over the last few years. It seems like a bit of a gamble to give him too high a contract or for too many years. Maybe 12 mill per year for four years would be reasonable. But even that is a gamble considering his declining production. Some team might give him that big, fat, juicy contract though, because as we all know; there’s a sucker born every minute.
