And this is exactly what I said. I wouldn't trade him. You are on the hook for a lot of money either way, so why give him what he wants?
BUT, since the Steelers can't see him being with the team next season, that indicates that he will be cut or traded. Since he likely won't be cut, that means traded. And since teams know this situation is untenable, he quit on his team and has a generally poor attitude, they aren't getting the pipe dream return that some here seem to think. I think a 3rd and a 6th would be more than generous, considering the situation. Anything less than that is probably giving him away. And I think if they trade him, they are likely going to have to give him away. Just my take. I am probably wrong. I guess we'll see.
