I think this is a good approach as well. Let the sample size grow and then when they're at the point a contract offer needs to be made, don't lowball him.
Unless Wolf really just wants to get it done early, because I don't know, maybe he wants the peace of mind in case something were to happen like an injury. But with a smaller sample size, there is more uncertainty, which would have to come with some kind of discount for the team to make the gamble more palatable.
