He has it all now. He is paid. Job done. Top line, third line, I dont think he cares anymore. He'll still perform, of course, because he's probably got at least one more contract in him, but he is in this for the life and the money and he's already gotten the vast majority of what he's going to get.
We can disagree, you make some valid points, but I view him more as sn opportunist. We will see how it plays out. If.him and Bennett don't click it makes the trade look bad, and they likely get shuffled up or down.
