I really rate Tippett. And he is best 18 with us all day every day.
I really rate JOM and he is best 18 all day every day with us.
But I would rather ship off Tippett to GC for a pick/pick swap/pick and a so so player etc and leave JOM right alone.
Reason is Heeney needs to stay and Mills, who will be better than Heeney in my useless opinion, will need coin as well. Lock up thise two now with the Tippett coin for as long as we can. Go to the draft with a lot of decent picks and cull like mad in the ressies. See what falls from the tree.
A stop gap guy like Del Santo or even Boomer, that type anyway, for a year or so makes more sense than paying JOM $700k when we have 2 Ferraris sitting in the garage ready to let loose.
Free up cap. Keep Nanny bring in draft talent that hopefully clicks and go from there.
