Don't over pay, but don't dismiss it out of hand either also fits.
But do you really think he can be had without giving up one of our top young players? I don't think he can. So to that I say no thank you.

And then you have to factor in his terrible contract which will likely hamper us for more seasons than it helps us, and his awful play everywhere but the blue-line in, and his well documented unwillingness to adapt to a full team concept. And to that I say holy f*** please God no!
