I don't think it's as much as a slam dunk as others do.
Reasons
- I think Gio on an expiring contract fetches a good return next deadline
- I think his downfall has been large, but he is still a guy that can help a team and therefore has that value next TDL
- Tanev's contract has long-term risk

I probably do what others suggest and protect Tanev believing Gio doesn't get picked. I most certainly do not send assets to Seattle under any scenario. This franchise needs to collect assets not shed them.

But I can also see Gio being protected and Tanev getting exposed. And I could still see Seattle picking a young guy like Kylington over him.
