Right. I think they would try to trade him. But I also think that for them to be successful, he'd have to agree to a new deal with the new team. I doubt they'd get much of a haul for a 1 year player at a franchise tag price (who would likely remain disgruntled as a tagged player). I could be wrong, but that's my theory.
