I understand they can pay him...lots of teams can. I also understand its home for him and if that's the determining factor, then sure.
Let's be honest though, that rebuild they have undertaken is a scorched earth type. It will take 5 years to get where they want to go and that's with all sorts of things falling into place as they are hoping, which is unlikely considering the massive holes on that roster at key spots.
If he does go to TO then it was only about money, which is fine and no one should begrudge him. But if he wants even a chance to win, he has to sign elsewhere.
Like Elliot said last night, this scare he is going through might just change everything.
