I'd be okay with a long-term AAV at that figure because players only get more expensive so the 'real' cost is likely in the $9 million range. Paying him that in real dollars for a single season, OTOH, sucks balls.
If it were doable, I'd cut him and use the roll-over savings to put towards retaining Fisher or Poe long-term. Berry under the tag isn't a value at all.
Sure seems like paying the man when the Chiefs didn't have to built up a ton of good will, eh?
