He wants 8 years is he going to play until he is 41? I would hope we are not signing a injury prone defender to that type of deal.
I think he has to realize this is a special group and if he wants to be a part of that he will have to accept a shorter term deal, and I know Brad and Brian probably feel the same way. I think 4/28 is a very fair deal it takes him to 37 and pays him 28 million over 4 years. If he insists on getting a contract 8 years in length that pays 9 million then we should trade him asap.
