In the recent salary cap era no player has come close to the max of 20%, nobody has even exceeded 16%.

The absolute max id guess we see is 18% of the cap, which if the cap is $92M next July 1 would be about $16.5M
I don’t disagree with you, he should sign for as much as he can get
But
The one thing I don’t understand is the “PA should pressure him…..”. Why should they care in the cap era? They are getting 50% HRR if he signs for 17M or 1M.
In fact the more he takes, the less everyone else gets
