I don't understand your position at all. They paid 20Million guaranteed, no incentives nothing. They are ready to pay 24Million guaranteed, no incentives nothing. KC is a top FA candidate if we don't sign him, Far better than a Brock equivalent. Some team is going to overpay him if he hits FA, that is what happens. If we try to say 20M plus incentives he would walk away in a heartbeat and the Skins aren't letting that happen.
SO
The Skins choices are :
FT him at 24 guaranteed for 1 year and put themselves in a terrible bargaining position next year ... or ...
Sign a long term Team Friendly deal that gives him an apy between 22.5 and 25M with guarantees starting around 58Million (2 year FT - 24M+34M) and incentivize the later years.
And KC is going to sign with the Skins. He knows the system, knows he has receivers and the support of the HC, and knows what he did here the last two years.
The rest of this is just fan hufferpuff
