He's been fairly decent for the past couple seasons, and would seriously screw with the other team's timing benefiting not only him, but also Morrow/Johnson as well.
I agree it's an overpay, but I don't really see TDA + Gose being a large step down production wise from Rasmus and JPA.

I see JPA instead of TDA as a huge step down and also possibly 6 years of control in Gose as a great asset for Rasmus, who remains a big question mark.
