So FO can keep trying to strongarm him saying we'll trade you, but they will ONLY be hurting the roster. Hes way more important to this team right now than anyone theyll trade for.

Do we know for a fact that FO is trying to string arm? Genuine question. They could be working a killer deal for all I know.
There probably isn't a guy to come in and hit the ground running at the pace we are currently on. However, losing him for nothing is something we can't afford, so they better be some stone turning Mthr fvckers right now behind thr scenes.
Either way, even if we extend him, we still need help. It's not like we are contenders if we extend today. We are closer in theory though.
