So we are back to gutting the defence or trading both those players for nothing.
Vladar is likely not worth anything and Dube is struggling. Trading those two and having Toffoli right now seems okay to me. And you could trade Toffolli this year as well.

Or trade him in July, August, Sept or early October and still be cap compliant. Rush job and poor return.
