Both parties stand to gain from waiting until October.

I predict a 4-5 year deal in the $7-9M/year range with a ~$20M bonus.

If he bones in the first few games, his price goes down and we may decide to let him walk next year. Either way, waiting is to the Skins overall advantage
There is no way, that he is paid less than 10-11 million a year.

This is just the way it is right now for a franchise QB. Nothing cheaper to be honest once the bonus is spread evenly across each year it would most likely be in the 13.5-15 mil a year range.

I for one want to pay the man and keep him here for as long as he can play.

He deserves and will get Brady, Manning, and Brees money.
