Anyone who states they would have done something different is a liar or an idiot. Chirelli wasnt going to offer a 5-7 year deal a year out. He trade certainty and cap hit for term. Also in the player empowerment era he can just hold out and demand a trade whenever he breaks.
The 8yr sea was the only sensible decision.

So don't hold out when it's legal and then do it when it's a contract breach? That's smart.
You realize he didn't get the money right away despite the contract being signed a year in advance, right? He didn't have to sign anything at all, for a year and a half.
I assume the $100M/year was intended exaggeration.
