I think we could still get a granlund or haula or someone better than jensen with that

Man I like the pick and jarry but with bad contracts expiring I hate to take Johnson back. Honestly I think it's a no from Detroit

our F group is good enough at this point. It's the D corps that could use a slight upgrade. Jensen is an underrated defensive defender who gets paid very little. He could even be re-signed with the freed up cap if we want to shore up that 3rd pair for 2019-2020.

I would think DET would be the ideal landing spot for these bad contracts as they try to rebuild. They receive assets and use up cap they don't really need to use (as they are not contending). By the time they need the space, with the rebuild giving way to contention, the bad contracts start expiring and the assets received in the deals start blossoming into key players for the contending years.

Yeah except that they are flushing out so many bad contracts I don't think they jump into more. They still need to move out a few.

I wish pitt would make this deal. Unfortunately, GMJR and HCMS love Johnson and he’s not going anywhere, anytime soon. I get the purpose of signing Johnson. It was an experiment to see if we could bring him back to life under the Pittsburgh system. Why didn’t they sign him for 1 or 2 years???? Rather than 5. What a joke of a contract. Rutherford hasn’t made too many bad moves, but this is probably his worst, right behind the Reaves experiment

Detroit is not a garbage dump for your bad contracts. We are trying to rebuild and taking on bad contracts is not a way to rebuild. We get you 1st which could be in the 20's and you get our 2nd which will be in the mid 30's. This is done to take on JJ's bad deal. Not good enough. Jensen for Jarry woudl or could be fair.
