I didn’t like it either. Quite frankly I think he’s totally overrated (please remember that overrated doesn’t mean bad, I do like Backlund) on this board. He doesn’t put up the offensive numbers to justify that kind of money in my opinion.
That said, I think he’s good enough that he won’t become Brouwer, but he’s overpaid by about a million bucks/year.
