I really like him and he's great for our offense when he's available. I know we don't want to have a lame duck situation but part of me says to let him play out the year on this contract and adjust accordingly at the end of the season. If he misses another 5 games this coming season and some other team wants to sign him for 35m a year, they can take on that risk. On the other hand if he stays healthy and has a good season, then that's likely good for the team one way or the other. If he stays, we got a good year out of him and will offer a good contract, if he goes...we still got a good year out of him and will free up some room that we wouldn't have had otherwise. I'd rather him be here than not but I just have a hard time convincing myself to sign on to a huge long term deal and trusting that his long term health is going to be reliable (esp. when you consider like with JSN it's something like 120m guaranteed right there. That is almost as concerning as the AAV)All that said though it depends on what the cap does too. I'm always of the mind that it's better to look at the percentage of cap going toward the contract rather than just the raw number</blockquote>
