If you were 25 and a 13th round draft pick with everything you touch going in, are you really going to bet on yourself or just take about $40 million guaranteed?
I don't see any way Mangiapane takes a 1 year deal. He's fought a long way and will want to secure a deal to give him and his family some secured income.
Not many 25 year olds with a career high of 32 points betting on themselves. I could see it with a younger player that was a high draft pick but IMO would be silly for Mangiapane to take a 1 year deal. Anything can happen.
