There's always been a "Hanifin extended" value and a "Hanifin rental" value and we've had a pretty good idea of where he would sign an extension for quite a while now.
The plan has to be to try to start a bidding war with the teams he would extend with. I believe that was what bringing the agent into the process was all about. If that doesn't materialize, make the best deal with a team who will take him as a rental.
