Considered to be a young elite pitcher the Reds signed him to a $100 million + contract. He then fell apart physically making the contract one of the worst of all time. Starting to see any similarities?

Of course, you may prefer to use the Andrew Luck comparison.

Lol, you need to research the history. No. He didn't. His no hitters were in 2012 (his age 26 season) and 2013 (his age 27 season). 

A simple search shows that there have been 35 pitchers who have thrown multiple no hitters...

He was also never considered elite. When he was extended, he was a 0x All-Star, had never gotten a single Cy Young or MVP vote of any placing, and he had a career 95 ERA+ meaning even once compensating for ballpark differences, he was 5% below league average. Not even average.
