This is their career, they don't have a lot of time in it, so they wanna maximize their dollars. Can't blame them for that.

Exactly. The team did a lot for Hill and he more than paid them back with elite play for peanuts and then a below value deal.
Veach put his limit, offered a reasonable deal and moved on once it was clear Hill was going for the stars. That's good business IMO.
Orlando Brown might be a similar story honestly except he is not the caliber of Hill but I'm thinking he will want mega dollars.
