The time/amount don't really bother me at all.

This is spot on. So long as we don't end up in "cap hell" (which, according to all the pundits, we've been in for years), what difference does the cost make?
My guess is you bring in a serious young prospect or two over the next few years, groom em behind DMac, and then keep DMac as a vet backup. Now, if DMac suddenly gets hot, he'll get his incentive money. If not, it's stability until the true savior arrives. We've still got a ton of team to build before we're going anywhere, IMO. This locks in one piece, and it shuts down all the gossip for a while. I'm fine with the move, even at 80 mill.
Now, if we re-sign captain Rabach for big money...
