What is the point of trading him now for a pick next year? Why not trade him after the season for a pick next year?
If we trade him now for a future pick we get nothing from him this season. If we trade him after the season we get his production this year (unless he sits and forgoes a paycheck) and we can still get the pick next year by trading him after the season.
Trading for a future pick now would be dumb. If we were going to trade him it should have been last week for a pick in this draft. Now that the draft is passed, let this year play out and deal him next year (before the draft) if you have to.
