Why would McDavid ask for anything but the largest salary for the longest term?
‘Oh, you're letting me write my own ticket, but I won't be greedy because I'm just that gosh-darned nice. I mean, I could suffer a career-ending injury tomorrow, and if I sign at $10m for 4 years instead of $13m for 8, I'll lose out on 64 million smackers. But hey, that's how it goes, sometimes ya gotta take one for the team.’
