I agree our main striker should be our highest earner. Everyone wants what we want; which makes good strikers so expensive to land/pay.
It also makes them the slowest to sign; unlike any other position they can afford to wait. It's obvious Keates uses timescales for contract offers. However from his last interview he's also going to be playing signing 'chicken', hoping good players wait too long and their other options dry up.
