He got that contract and it was widely panned as being an overpayment. Outside of last season, I think everyone would agree. Agree to disagree I guess, but I don't think there are many gms lining up to take Wideman regardless of money retained unless there's more value going out or bad contact coming back

I too have to disagree. While this season wasn't great, he's certainly not last in P/$MM (ahead of guys like Bouwmeester, Enstrom, Hamhuis, and Girardi). He still has significant value as an offensive piece, something with costs quite a bit and is still valued by team.
If we retained 1-1.5 million Wideman's point per dollar value would be right there with the majority of players in the 4-6 million range and he'd be a great pick up.
