And let's say the Redskins were offering something in the neighborhood of 50-60 mil guaranteed money, is he willing to throw that way and settle for 25 mil guaranteed this year?

Personally, I think either Kirk may be unrealistically betting on himself and/or wants an unreasonable amount of money to be throwing away the security of a long term deal? Once you have a player who does not value the security of a long term deal, it is difficult for the team to come to some compromise with the player/agent.
Oh, I see what you mean. What you say makes sense to me, now.
