So they traded for him knowing there was no way he would sign an extension and he was for sure going to be a free agent that tests the market?

I have read 5Y/180M, that is what we can offer him next summer? What is the most other teams can offer him? Would it just be the one less year?

One year less and they can only offer 5% raises each year and the Pels can offer 8%. 4/$130 vs 5/&175. Technically $45 million more with the extra year but only $5-$6 million more over the first 4 years.

If this team makes the playoffs and/or trades for Bledsoe I have little doubt that Cousins will resign.
