Actually it’s a risky move if he takes a 1 year and goes UFA. If he has a terrible year he may not get close to the kind of contract he’d get at the moment. Chucky faces the same risk, albeit lesser one because he has multiple good seasons under his belt and is viewed as more of an established star.
