Well for a guy like Bouma, this will most likely be his career season. Term wise I think 4 years is as long as I'd like to go although if 12 million over 5 years was what it took to make the contract longer than 2 years, I likely wouldn't balk at it. Essentially making the annual salary's of
1.5
2.0
2.4
2.85
3.25
Towards the end it could be a bit expensive if he starts breaking down. But there is no reason to believe that the intangibles will go away. Granted, look at Marcus Nilson and how he basically fell apart. So that is the risk here with Bouma.
