I like bonuses.
Simon has been injured. Great, give him a per game bonus that if he plays, he gets paid. Protects the team from "Bob Sanderism" but gives the player something to look forward to. We would have paid less to Arthur Jones over the past 2 years if this clause had been in his contract.
I also like "unlikely to be earned" bonuses. It made no financial difference to Erik Walden to get 42 tackles and 11 sacks in 2016 versus 42 tackles and 3 sacks in 2015. However, would Walden have tried harder earlier than his contract year if there had been money to chase? Will it motivate Simon? We will see.
I have a cousin who ownes a debt collection company. He has different pay systems for his workers ranging from 100% salary to 100% commission and different splits inbetween. Same job, different income models to his employees. Folks pick the one that brings them security.
However, he will tell you the ones that take less guarantee and more based on their own performance are his best employees.
