I think it depends on where they see the team next year. Their window of having cheap ELC's is closing. Next year, Hall and Eberle are making 6M. The year after, RNH will probably want something similar. Schultz will probably be looking to cash in after his 2 years are up. And you know Yakupov is going to ask for the moon once his ELC is done. If this year's pick is not top 3 and can still net them a bonifide top pairing dman, then they might consider it.
