If we start him off at say, $6.25M and decrease to $4M over the life of his contract, that gets us in the $5.5M AAV range which is imo fair for him. I mean, if we can get him for $4.75M AAV long term, all praise to be Treliving - but I can't see that happening.

Then you trade him now because we have a bevy of capable top 6 guys
