That is the way I look at it.  Add the salary from the last year of his rookie deal (probably about $1 million) and spread it out over 5 years.  That is what is really happening.

BTW when they re-signed Mixon I felt he was worth $8-$9 million a year.  So at $10 million a year he might have been overpaid, but it was by a small amount.
