I understand that teams in these contracts are paying for future production, not past production. If I’m going to give you like $100M, I’d like to have some past production. Patrick Williams has done some stuff, but like that’s just… if that’s the number, if that ends up being true and the Vassell deal ends up being the comp that his agents go to, that’s a lot of cheese.

Starting about 32 minutes into The Lowe Post.

$25m is going to be less than 15% of the luxury tax line next year and only going to go down. So no it really isn't an overpay

10-15% cap for a guy that's a solid bench piece on a contender isnt great
