Not above criticism, but above the level of criticism thrown around here early on in the thread. I'm saying the guy is not a total dud, thus he did not simply put his head in the sand and take whatever deal happened to be there when he pulled it out.
It is just far more likely that this was the value that was available considering the constraining factors such as NMC and an extra year at 6.8M.
Criticize the players we received back all you would like, but this is a decent return, all things considered.
My logic is this: Feaster got into a very good school --> He must be a very intelligent person --> It is unlikely that he simply chose an obviously inferior deal
It just seems hilarious how strongly worded some of the posts have been about how he didn't get the value he should have. As if some keyboard warrior who has never worked in the industry could reasonably believe that they have such superior knowledge of the situation that a man of proven intelligence simply made a completely out to lunch decision
