I think with the sign a trade route these teams can't really offer all that much but it's better than losing a star player for nothing. Plus that star player can make more in that type of deal.
If teams are offering spare parts in a sign a trade why not us get involved. We could trade Davis, our #1 pick, maybe throw in Daniels, T Allen, or Robinson in some sort of sign and trade as well. Our team of course would be very attractive to a star player for the next 2 or 3 years or so if we pulled something like this off. Of course this is probably much more of a dream.
