He's no longer young, and his ability to drive play was nothing more than middling last season, which is a likely indication that his overall play is starting to drop off.
He's certainly not worth his salary right now and it's only going to get worse. This is a contract you'll be begging to get rid of after year 2.
The idea that we could give up assets for him is terrifying.
