It would be interesting to hear what contract Schneider would rather sign Russell to:
1. 5 year $120M - gradual climbing salary like $20M, $22M, 24M, $26M, $28M with 2 years / $42M guaranteed
2. 8 year $168M - flat $21M per year with 3 years / $63M guaranteed
3. 6 year $140M - has $20M upfront signing bonus, then flat $20M per year with 2 years / 60M guaranteed
4. 10 year $200M plus incentives and built in salary bumps on yearly performance (Pro Bowl, Play-offs) with 5 years / 90M guaranteed
