His value in a trade I do not know. What I DO know is that nothing pumps up a player's trade value like blaring from a megaphone that you're benching him for the foreseeable future.

HE MAY NOT BE A PART OF OUR FUTURE PLANS BUT YOU SHOULD TOTALLY SHIP US SOME GREAT DRAFT PICKS FOR THIS AWESOME SPECIMEN OF A PLAYER."
