Are there players out there that would make a huge difference? I'd say a few, but what would it cost to get them? Arizona has made it clear they're not going to give up PP without someone backing up the pick/player Brink's truck, so that ship has sailed as far as I'm concerned. Let's not forget the PMII extension and whatever we're going to do with Jones. That money alone will limit what we can do long-term with a player obtained by trade. It's just not wise to trade away draft capital for a rental player you can't keep. If you can obtain a superstar that is under a reasonable long-term contract, yes, you look at it, but not on someone who'll be pounding at the GM's door for a boatload of cash in the off season.
