My bold prediction: We lose Josh Anderson to Seattle. We acquire him in the off-season for our 2020 2nd and conditional 2021 3rd round pick (turns into the 2021 2nd round pick if he scores 20G - which he does). We only sign him to a 1 year deal to burn up his final cheap RFA season, and then Seattle signs him to a bigger contract and he leaves as a UFA (ala Deryk Engelland).

Effectively means we spent two 2nd round picks to get a season of Josh Anderson and protect our other players.
