Message: [QUOTE="I bleed Maroon, post: 3292991, member: 8274"] I think the Taumalolo deal should be a cautionary tale in this situation. He was perhaps worth that contract 5 or so years ago, but with the combination of older age and the latest round of rule changes, his affect on the game has been comfortably blunted, and you wouldn't say JT2 is a 1 million dollar forward today. Haas does seem like a once in a generation talent, but he still has deficiencies, most notably in his goal line defence. That to me would knock his value down to around 850-900k, which I would be more than happy to pay him over 10 years. As it is, I think if he wants 1 million, the length should only be 5-6 years. The sad truth of the matter is we're being FORCED to offer him that much money for that long, because the club knows as well as we do that when late 2022 rolls around, the entire comp is going to be banging on Haas door, especially the cashed up ones like the Dogs and Tigers, who will throw ridiculous money at him out of desperation.
