I agree, but not because his play dropped.
Even though Cousins (for good reason) does not like Allen, he could interpret a fair long term contract offer (signing bonus) as a sign of good faith that gives him the long term financial security he wants. Then he probably would drop his price to average $25M. Front load some guaranteed money, let it average out over the term of the contract.
However as long as Allen and Snyder's egos are in play, this may never happen. For them it is the perception of winning in the public eye they always want.
