I'm with FDW this topic has gone ditch completely.

A poster thinks that they have proof that Treviling is being petty? That is insane.

I'll never hire many of you to negotiate my next house deal, I can't imagine how that would go.

Personally I think Treliving played it well. Jankowski needed a solid 4th year to have his value at a 2nd round pick. If he didn't progress again then taking the 2nd might have been Trevliving's angle. Had a good year, now he sees him as at least equal value to the 2nd and more developed so you work out a deal.

Would you guys honestly want a GM that showed up at the kid's house in tears offering everything right up front and than whaling and moaning if the kid doesn't sign?

Let this stuff run it's course ...
