No, I don’t think so. The value of the retention remains the same. The value of the player is separate. $3M is $3M, it has a set value. Two players can have different value, but that’s where the difference is, not in the retention value.
Player A might be twice as valuable as Player B, but that just means you’re paying the same for retention and then twice as much for the player.
