Just trying to see all thoughts and perspectives. Right now I am not sure there is a right or wrong answer

Before the injury and when he was playing his ass off, I was for franchising him and if he repeated his success, then you could sign him long term. After the injury, my take is a 3 year contract
Year 1 10 million no bonus
Year 2 (provided year 1 was successful 30 million no bonus
year 3 (again, provided successful previous season) 50 million
with a contract like that, if he succeeds he gets his money, if he fails, you can cut him with no dead money. There is give and take, but the bottom line is not to be caught up in long term dead money if he shits the bed.
