The condition on the 1st is so unusual, it's obvious that it was tailored for a specific purpose. I expect the Knights will do their damnedest to use that pick this week for an immediate upgrade, in which case the unprotected '26 1st will be locked in. And that upgrade will significantly increase their chances of winning a round and triggering the other condition.

Or they have no intention of using it. You may be right, they may use it, then again Vegas could easily go out in the first round.

Maybe if he waits till Friday, Vegas says they’ll take their chances in signing him this summer, but are willing to give a protected 2026.
All we know is Conroy took what he viewed as the best deal for Hanifin. Now let’s move on

I find it weird when people come into a trade thread discussing the trade that just occurred and tell people not to discuss it.
No one is saying this wasn't the best offer he's gotten. I'm sure it was, it just wasn't great. I don't think the return was necessarily horrible. Retaining plus giving those conditions seems a little much.
If you don't want to discuss the trade and want to move on then feel free to do that.
