You've demonstrated that it's possible, but IMO it's just not a good idea to go all-in on Pietro+Markstrom+Hanifin+Gio+existing Forward core

If we only asked for a 7th for Ryan, someone will take him, there is zero doubt about that. There will always be a team needing a #3C that is an excellent PKer.
We aren't going to land both Petro and Markstrom as UFAs, we'll be lucky if we get one of the big 3, nevermind both of them. So the whole point was just to show that it is possible without giving up Hanifin.
