On one hand, they aren't going to make panic signings and trades and figure "I'm getting fired anyways, so if this doesn't work the next guy will have to deal with it" but they can also play the "overpay me for player X or I'll just say no and I'll still have a job no matter what happens, but you might not" card.

Regardless of what Tee's actual value is in a real sense, if you are dealing with Mike Brown you are at a disadvantage because he can walk away from any deal and you can't.

Great points. It is a good and bad thing we have going on here, but Mikey Boy isn't in charge anymore.

If he wasn’t a top 20, trade chatter wouldn’t even be happening.

With his injury history, Tee is a big gamble for anyone and that is why a trade probably won't happen and he will be here this season
missing games while we are paying him 21 mil and he doesn't want to be here. All of this is just speculation until something actually 
happens and the more I think about it, it won't happen, and we will be in a bad spot.

The best scenario for everyone involved is for us to trade Tee. Also, Tee was drafted at the top of the 2nd round, if we can get a 2nd
round pick early we are even IMO. We can draft his replacement with one of our first 2 picks while adding help in the trenches where 
we need it.
