Personally, I don't like this at all. If Arrington has 2 pro bowl seasons, thus making him eligible to void his contract in 2007, what incentive is there for him to NOT say he wants to void it. If he voids it, we'd have to pay another 3.5 million to keep him. Otherwise he leaves for free agency after 2 pro bowl seasons to get paid again elsewhere. The flip side, of course, is that if he doesn't make the pro bowl he stays here for the remainder of his contract (in theory, at least). Shouldn't we have put something in there saying he owes us back 3.5 million if he doesn't make the Pro Bowl in 2 of the next four seasons??? Fair is fair...
