OK, PP will turn 36 this year and Granger will turn 30. A big difference.
The main difference is in minutes played (not counting preseason minutes which would make it even MORE exaggerated).
PP has played 49,000+ regular season and playoff minutes in his career.
Granger has played about 18,500 regular season and playoff minutes in his career.
That is a HUGE difference, no matter how you slice it.
Yes, we would be taking a CHANCE that DG can come back from jumper's knee and his surgery, but we need to take some risks or we are heading or already in a state of oblivion.
Danny is going to have to take some chances and gamble.
PP can help Indy and they can keep him next year is it works out of pay him $4 million to go away next year.
I would not include a first rounder on second thought as this helps Indy about equally as well. I might include a second rounder though.
