Re: Av's listening to offers on O'Reilly
Talent wise he is very good. He won’t blow the barn doors open with points, but his prevention and ability to play in all aspects of the game is his bonus. 7mill for a guy who will play PP, Even, and the PK is rare now a days. I would love someone with that talent and abilities on my team, but ROR agent…I get the sense he’s just too much for GMs to deal with.
No one really has proof the guy needs to head to an asylum, but to walk into a negotiation and practically say “we want 6mill for 6yrs” and just repeat that over and over what I think he does is odd. That’s not negotiating, that’s a hostage taking really. Now, ROR could easily tell the agent “this is what I want, nothing less”, which makes the agent the best rule follower ever.
We all know 1 team out of 30 would pay a 24yr old 7millx7yrs easily because if that team is young and not going to do well for 3+years, 7mill come 2018 could look very good for a No1 center. And if he doesn’t do well as a No1 center, 7mill for a solid 2-way No2 center could still be very good.
