And no one is suggesting they pick up the phone this afternoon and take the first offer they get - you still put in the work and shop around.
Some posters are pretty much suggesting exactly that, because they think it's so important to lose games.

Let's not forget that last year, they decided to move Lindholm early. And it turned out that Lindholm got a better return than anyone at the deadline.
Let's also not forget that the Lindholm trade was a once-in-a-career fleecing. If you're counting on that to happen again, good luck to you. For those odds, I'd rather play the lottery.
