The thing that makes him the most tradeable is having McQueen in the system. Between McQueen (and to a lesser degree Nilson) there is very likely a #1/2C in the pipeline which means they have a bit of a logjam and someone is going to become expendable.
Having said that, I hope they go slow with McQueen. It would be a real shame for him to get rushed and have his career wrecked by more injuries.
