You give him a small bump because of his leadership on the team, but you have to remain realistic. Giordano is one of the top 10 defenders in the game, but he isn't the top guy. He isn't worth that scratch now, and definitely not in the future.

The past 2 seasons, he's been a top 5 defender IMO. and Before he got injured this year he was the run away favourite for the Norris. The amount players are getting has been steadily rising for the last few years, he's definitely at least a 7.5M defender. Especially when all the years you're buying are UFA ones.
