"In the middle of February I reached out to his agent JP Barry and told him we wanted to sign him. I sat down on road trip with Adam and told him we wanted to re-sign him. I made an offer in March. In April, they told me they wanted to shut it down until the end of the year.
...
"I thought we were really close. I made four or five different offers in June and July. I added a year and ultimately a week ago I went to Barry and gave them green light to explore options. Yesterday morning I found out Adam signed in Seattle." Holland with Larsson.

I'm a little concerned by the sheer volume of offers that Holland is claiming he made. Is he negotiating against himself on some of these? I mean, I guess it's possible that there were a bunch of counter-offers, and that each side moved a little each time, but I don't think I'd want to put this out.
It makes him look like a weak negotiator in one of a couple of ways:
1) He's negotiating against himself, sending a proposal and then sending another if the agent doesn't respond or accept; or
2) He's neither putting his best foot forward, nor drawing any lines in the sand. If pushed, he'll continue to send more proposals.
If you're doing a deal and you're serious about it, there's only so many back-and-forths you should be doing on the main numbers. You should have a pretty strong idea of what you're willing to do at the outset, and what you won't do. If you're an agent negotiating with Holland, how do you take him seriously if he keeps upping his proposal?
Not sure sharing that they were in the 5x$5MM range for Larsson is a detail I'd want to leak either. Says A) they were willing to do a stupid overpay and B) he didn't want to be here, even for demonstrably more money.
