I think you give him term because if you don't you could end up with the Denis Gautier types who suddenly refuse to take the body with an interest in extending their careers. They become 1/10th of the player they were.

Sign him to a 3 to 4 year deal. He will still be under 30 by the time the deal is up. It's worth the risk.
