I don't know enough to know if the $4M cap space is in the right spot, but sounds like this is not a top 6 player. He also isn't particularly young. Why would you ever lock yourself into a bottom 6 player (who you aren't expecting to graduate to a top 6 player because they are young) for max term? Those are the parts you want to be flexible no?

On paper I do get it, I think it was Calle Jarnkrok in Nashville who they signed to a 2M AAV for six years which ended up being a steal. And with rising caps the term ends up even more advantageous
