Robinson's 6y/$57m carries an annual-average of $9.5m w/ a $25.5m signing bonus.
My thinking is that Bodden will get less than that, but not 1/2 less.
You have to look at the contract itself to make that determination. I could easily show how a $10 million a year contract is in reality a $4 year contract averaging $7 million a year.
If you guarantee the salaries in the first 3 or 4 years then you can easily get to that 25 million guaranteed number while paying out $15 million a year on the last 2 years.
