You may not get a player or pick in return but you avoid having $13 million a year tied up in a guy who is not performing.

This is a big part of the equation.  Even though I have been saying "hell, yes" if they offered something ridiculous like two first rounders, I see AJ as the kind of guy that takes care of his body and won't diminish like some that are not as focused on their self-care.  He has never been the phone-booth quick guy, but more of a long strider that can cut well at speed.  He also has some of the most amazing body control in the air I have ever seen.

I am far from a cap-ologist, but it seems like the number must be climbing significantly over the next few years based on what we see this FA signing period.  That is only going to make high draft picks that much more valuable.
