You saying things don't matter doesn't make it so. All of what I mentioned matters in contracts negotiations. Yannick will be looking for all of the above in contract negotiations. 

You can keep taking about this mythical deal that you have somehow determined is the fairest possible offer Yannick should have taken but it's not based in reality.

Neither are Yan's expectations.  He thinks he's the best DE in football - he's not.  He thinks he should be the highest paid DE in football - he shouldn't be.

I think Yan deserves a big payday as much as the next guy, but I'm with the team here... The guys "setting the market" finished their rookie deals, and they were seriously overpaid.
