Unbelievable. Why are we talking about that shit with teams? That's a piece of leverage we hold.
I can just see ol' honest John on the phone with Jeff Ireland going, "Now, Jeff, you're a buddy of mine. We went to college together, so I just want you to know that this OT we're tradin' ya... he wants somewhere around 8-9 million per year, so if yer not comfortable paying that, I don't think you should make the deal."
"Okay, John. We can do that, but I'd like to only pay a 3rd rounder."
"Oof. That's a tough bargain, but... eh, I like ya. You're an honest man. It's a deal."
