All we have is speculation from Bob M re: the $5.5M and some bs from Eric Francis.

Or would you guys not even want him at $3M? Or is he overpaid at $2.6M currently? I like him up to $3M.
I'd be onboard with giving him up to $3.5m on a 3 year term, but no more than that on either term or AAV.

If he is seriously asking for anything close to, the same as, or more than Brodie's $4.6m AAV, I can't imagine the re-signing conversation gets very far.
