It's all speculation.  Nobody actually knows for sure

It is, but I wouldn't be surprised if the news that Allen was about to sign the day of the tag deadline was because he was asking for $30M and the team finally offered it to him or something very close and his agent talked him back and convinced him to see these deals first.  He'll get a little more than $30M per now.  Probably $95-100M guaranteed or something close to that, but let's see Hunter's deal.
