To be clear, I agree that if we get good value, we trade Russell.

But the real issue is what you've highlighted--Wideman, Smid and Engelland. I'd keep Engelland, out of those three. But yes, it's hard to shed the contracts of the other two.

I'd jettison Wideman and Smid ASAP, if it were possible.
