I also don't think it was super urgent he had to be dealt immediately. Two or three more months wouldn't be the end of the world. Especially if it allowed other teams to be able to fit the contract when only 25% was remaining.

It's already been established looking at past deals that this is what bottom pairing generally guys go for.
You may not like it. You may have wanted more. But the market dictates the price. Not the other way.
