I mean paying more is a legit downside. We could run into Apron issues making it more difficult/painful to sign at the bigger number. He could also sign a poison pill offer sheet to make things much more difficult. I think its unlikely that he will get an offer more than MLE, but if he has a really nice year its possible, at which point we would probably regret not getting something down now.
