[QUOTE="HardRightEdge, post: 529684"] I am increasingly convinced of a speculation I posted earlier...the rumored $8 million/year offer was designed to be refused by being light on the signing bonus and guarantees. Leak an unqualified per year figure that looks to the fans like a bona fide offer; make the bonus and guarantee light so the guy will turn it down. This or may not be the case, but the logic of it is compelling. This certainly could have been the case with Jenning's rumored $10 million pre-2012 offer. If so, the desired affect would have been achieved with Jenning's painted as the greedy bad guy, though his reaction to the subsequent lower post-injury offer certainly didn't help his case. [/QUOTE]
