As of today Florida likely gets Tampa in round 1, and then would likely get Boston in round 2 if they were to win.

They are trying to get an interdivision bidding war going among Florida, Boston and Tampa Bay.

That's best for both the Flames, and Hanifin to maximize the actual AAV of his contract.
He was pushing it yesterday as well, almost to the point that he was doing it for a reason, jusrt a vibe.

Then he said Carolina would most likely be trading Pesce because they never let a UFA walk to free agency (Dougie recently)

And the day before that he thought Peterson still had 2 years left on his contract and all this talk didn't matter because he couldn't even sign an extension yet.

3 days in a row he has given me nothing to think better of the guy.
