No one wanted to pay Sneed the average of $20m per, with over $50m Guaranteed and give up a 2nd.

No, the deal was no team wanted to pay his $20+ AND trade his value in draft picks. Most GM's will do one or the other but Sneed is 27/28 and has had knee issues in the past. If some team was getting a deal on the money or the draft picks this would have gone differently.
