What has he won, maybe 5 games in 2 years? His play has improved, but you have to consider that he REQUIRES a $100m OL to be successful, so it seems. He had a good November and December. Before that, he was going to be cut. We have time to see more, and I realize the cost goes up. In my view, any player who sucks for 2 years and then the light comes on should give that team a hometown discount. We could have traded him away for a conditional pick. We could have benched him permanently and ruined his brand. Instead, they showed faith in him and we took losses while he was figuring it out making over $500k per game. It hurt the fan base, it hurt merchandising, ticket sales, etc. We had more jerseys from visiting teams in our stands humiliating us at home while a first overall draft pick is figuring it out. Then after everyone sacrificed for him, if he were to demand top dollar I would take that personally. I know, twisted thinking. Not how bizness works, but I do not think I can give him $30m per right now when I feel slimy giving him $10m on his rookie deal. Still, I am hopeful that his growth continues. -
