my opinion, which isn't going to be popular, but I think we should actively try and trade the guy.
Look, and I may be wrong, heck I hope I am wrong, but I think he has a great personality and when he wants to turn it on he can. But sometimes he just disappears for games or makes a play here and there, and other times he can really stand out.
Issue I have is that I'm not sure he is the type of guy who is effected by money in this regard. Will he put forth the same effort, will he be as dominate or more so in the coming years compared to what he was before, and last do we miss out on a couple of decent players that we will miss having him under such a big contract.
All of these things make me want to trade him. This is for the right price, but I would be happy with a 1st and 2nd and call it a day. I have faith in Brett and feel good about having two 1's, two 2's a 3,4 and 5 that we can get some very nice players in here along with signing a few more players we already have or above average FA and have a very solid, if not better team.
Again, I am 100% in the camp of trading for all those reasons but if I'm wrong, they keep him and he becomes even better, and we win another SB? Well then I'll be glad I'm wrong.
