I hate the "retain on ror" idea. The bulk of the real moneys already been paid, now we have to take a cap hit for 5 years too? Sure, hes probably overpaid for his offense at 7.5aav, but hes our second best player at a position thats costly to replace, with no obvious heir apparent in the organization. Even if you remove the retention its probably not a great move. We get sprong who would help on d, and the next best piece is likely around pick 30. Ultimately, ror is a good #2 center, which pitt doesnt need, thats slightly overpaid (seems like most people like him better around 6 mil), and it makes no sense for buffalo to move him for a quantity package.
