Go Easy-Step Lightly-Stay Free
I fully agree with every one of your points... but he has a better deal and Ryder would get us a better return at the deadline IMO. If I had to pick between both players, I'd stick with Brunner mostly because we'd get something "solid" in return and wouldn't lose that big of a step with Brunner over Ryder in our lineup.
Oh no doubt Ryder would be the guy to move if we're done at the deadline.
