I’m with the majority who think this is bad for the team. I get that he brings value beyond the numbers he puts up (which aren’t impressive), but he’s already 32, and they’re now committed to him for 5 more years. Not only that, they gave him a raise when he should be taking a pay cut, perhaps because they think he was underpaid in the past and they feel they need to make up for that, but teams don’t win that way.
They also added a no-move clause to his current contract. I didn’t know that was allowed. Minnesota got themselves in trouble by having too many old guys signed for too long. Now they risk the same thing happening again, just as they’re coming out of the fallout from last time.
