So yes with Cooks it's a 2nd contract, not a re-write of the first. The first expires after this year and to balance not erasing the first, they put huge pay-outs in place for 2019 and 2020, with again a lot of that guaranteed.
...
Thats what I am saying.
Do you think Donald will agree to stay on his $6.89M this year and take $24M for the next 4? I don't.
But thats an accurate comparisons to what Cooks got that is supposedly market value.
Why not? The issue is guaranteed money. You can take a future deal if it's guaranteed. That provides the requisite security. You get the money, just not today.
And no I think you're messing things up in how you look at it. Cooks got a 2nd contract that starts in 2019. In a traditional extension, you alter the remaining year. They didn't do that with Cooks (and they
did do that with Gurley).
Oh and everything you say is based on YOUR assumptions about what Cooks and Donald are thinking or would be thinking. That would be because every single person discussing this is doing that. It's just that different people are naturalizing different kinds of assumptions. So it's quaint and funny to see someone acting as if someone else is doing that while they are not.
