How long do they wait? And more to the point, what do you pay him while you are waiting? That is really the crux of things here as he needs a new deal right now....it seems pretty straight forward to me, but i have no doubt the Bennett camp sees it much differently.
I think 2.5 X 2 is perfect and im not going any higher unless forced by an offer sheet.
That allows him time to break out into this unlikely 50 point guy so many believe he is, while not hurting the existing pay scale and also being an affordable piece to move should you deem him no longer part of the plan after this upcoming season.
