Not sure if that makes it better or worse..


Feels like this one might go down to the deadline, as he'll need to runway for a bounce back to get the deal he wants.


If the Flamea are in a similar position as last year, and he's a huge part of it, will they have the guts to trade him though.
I think it's better. If he's only signing with one team, that team has all the leverage. You get a lower 'max return' ceiling, so any teams that would trade for him as a rental this year likely offers below that.

If there's 25 teams now that can get one year of him, it's a more balanced/competitive market place.
