Move it to the 2020 pick and maybe throw in a 2nd or a 3rd and it's a deal if Petro won't resign.

I think Benning would do that deal

The essence of your idea is sound, but we have absolutely no need for Eakin. They'd have to do better than that, and as you said, only if Petro won't re-sign... which isn't going to happen.

Maybe we have different values on Hague.

Are you suggesting we'd take Eakin as a cap dump?

in a way, yes. he carries a little bit of value but is ideally a third line guy

Hmm. He surely carries 3rd line value to some teams, but we literally have no space for him in the line-up. We are more than full with centers. In an emergency no chance at a Petro extension (which let's be honest, won't happen) they could keep him, scratch the retention (which definitely ain't happening) and just hand over Hague and the *2020* 1st. In theory, anyway.

vegas wouldn't have cap space for that :/
