I know Hanifin + Dube = $7M (roughly), but that's moving 2 bodies out and one in - you need to add another player to the equation for cap

If Robertson wanted $7M on a long term deal, he'd be signed already.
The only way that $7M sneaks into the picture is on a shorter term deal.
If Dallas wants him on a long term deal, the number likely starts with a $9M.
If Dallas decided they needed to move him, they would want a premium very young player still on his ELC as the starting point. Because if you are going to move a young star, you may as well get back some cap savings to boot.
