Saw the title. He sucks and is overpaid. That is all.

I didn't go as far as "he sucks" but the overpaid part definitely came up.

Yeah, but he's supposed to be a very good influence in the locker room........in multiple languages.

The only problem with a buyout is that if they're moving him to clear cap space for next season, where they'll be adding some big contracts, $2.1M of the $3M will still be on the books, plus they'll have to replace him with the remaining space.

I think they'd only move him if they needed the space for next year, otherwise they'll just wait it out.

They don't have the cap to sign anyone. It's been spent.
