It makes sense in taking a front loaded contract because of inflation that 20 millions is a little more worth the first year then 5 years later, that is also often the excuse for giving a backloaded contract in the real world.

I also frontload contracts quite often but rarely if ever backloads a contract it just seems very risky makes trading a player that much harder.
