11th Annual DW Toys Trade-A-Rama Draft (3 Rounds) Round 1

[DW Toys]

And we will never trade for that contract.

It is substantially more likely (even if overall unlikely) that we can sign him after a release than BB throwing out that much money for someone who could very well be past his prime. As long as his contract is above 7-8m APY this is a pipedream.

One thought. He has three years left. He knows if he gets cut no one is spending $12m (it does shrink the next two years though). He has $35m for three years roughly. Make it 4 years for $38mm? That slightly more ($1mm) than what you just paid the 33 year old Bennett

Extend him a fourth and pro rate the years down, or turn his contract to a bonus (I am not sure how a trade affects this though, or not).
