I think Loomis is handling this well by trying to milk the deal.

I totally agree. What MAJOR (or minor) contract in the NFL between player and General Manager has not turned out "frustrating" for at least the player?
Basically your skill and worth to the team are broken down into dollars and cent$ like a piece of cattle. But that IS the nature of the game and how players want to be represented - through performance based contracts.
Players like Colston etc. were not inquiring about contracts making them the highest paid players in the history of the NFL, therefore their contract negotiations were less cumbersome. Drew needs to understand this, but I also think his recent comments were for publicity to notify Loomis etc. to make contact with him.
Patience by WHO DAT brothers and sisters...
