He needs to look at this as his retirement contract.
I can’t think of many players signing for $5M+ at age 36 or older in recent history.

Exactly. If its about money - it should be about maximizing his total contract value this year. Look at guys like Parise who is now getting paid the minimum to stay in the league after his giant contract. Expecting to get good money after this contract is foolish.
