If he misses time early in we’re back to in dire need of a swing tackle. Right now we can pair Walker and Tom. But who becomes the backup swing in Nijman is gone?I could see maybe waiting until trade deadline for a possible suitor. I still think $4m is peanuts for a good swing tackle that’s Several years in-system.  You’ve got to replace him with someone and that a smooth $1m immediately. Now we save $3mil or less to let our decent Swing tackle go. Remember he’s a FA next season and we’d likely get a Day 3 selection when/if he resigns elsewhere.  We’re saving at best $3M and possibly parting with a 6-7th rounder (if we don’t max our Compensatory limit) if he gets picked up somewhere (which we both know he will)I appreciate the concept of wanting to trim fat to save $ but we could be competitive as soon as this year or next. It just seems like betting on no injuries or no postseason is a bit premature. We’re talking about banking on David Bakhtiari being 100%. Maybe you know something I don’t idk but we finally have the Yosh up to speed and keeping an adequate level Swing is worth $3m. Now watch we gets news he’s traded <img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/eek.png"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":eek:" title="Eek!    :eek:" data-shortname=":eek:" /></blockquote>
