Context is an important thing.
You can't talk about Brodie's value without noting he brings a significant amount of positives relative to his low cap hit.
When we look around the league at players making similar money, that point is underlined. Russell is one. Granted it's a bad contract, but defenders are in high demand, and we're seeing more and more of them signed to higher and higher dollar amounts.
The point being discussed that you chimed in on out of context was that while one could assert he's not providing the constant value he might be capable of, he's still providing value leagues above his cap hit. This is an important and positive thing.
