Based on that, I think it's HIGHLY unlikely that he agrees to any trade.

Yeah, I could see him waiving his trade deal if it didn't cost him money. Last year he was asking 10-13 mill/year. No way he waives his trade kicker if it means that his next deal can only start at 6.6mill/year.
If he suffers through this year and the cap jumps to 70mill, he could be eligible for 17mill/year starting salary. He won't get that much, but there is a huge difference between what he thinks he's worth and the 6.6mill he'd be able to get if he was traded.
