That simply cannot logically be true unless they were only asking for a 1 to 2 year deal. That number just doesn’t match his ability. The 5 year 70 million number that i remember hearing months ago and just sounds legit. Especially considering we also heard only like half was guaranteed. That would also make sense as to why Jesse would’ve have signed it. If he was offered 5yr 70 million fully guaranteed then there’s nothing to discuss, he would have signed it imo.
Bates needs his money guaranteed. And I’m with him on that. I would never sign an incentive laden deal if i were in my prime
