All based on opportunity cost. If teams can get boeser or a similar type for a smaller haul and still upgrade their team, they might consider that option over paying a premium for JG. Believe the upcoming play down/playoff will have an impact on any return. If he has a lukewarm performance, teams might be leery of giving up a good return. If he shows that he can play when it matters, return will probably be higher.
No question that JG is the higher end player, but need a team who wants the player and will pony up the assets to make the deal.
