Appreciate courteous response showing some effort and forethought.
Fine line betw. "don't think DeAngelo is a player we need" and as opposed to one you could use, and my suggestion was based on Van fan saying RD was needed.
Upgrading RD vs managing cap, I hear you. Haven't analyzed super thoroughly to be sure you can do still swing it, or your premise that you can't, holds water.
As to what a possible return would be if 'nucks went there, I quoted a post which was ok w/future 1sts. Your op is a no there.
So I concur, while others may differ, your offer is, by your forthright admission, not pretty.
Like I said, for ADeA
1. Market value, no more no less.
2. That is shaped by high demand/competitive offers.
So he won't be cheap.
Again, thanks for the honest share.
Other VAN input, agree or disagree commentary, is welcome.
The reality is that NY and Van are in too similar a place rebuild wise to make great sense as trade partners, any assets you do have as "expendable" are too costly for us, and vice versa. We could probably agree civilly that we each have pieces we would like to add to our respective teams, but simply can't quite make it work based on the timing of things.
