    Freeman guesses we will exercise the options on CJ and Meyers and not on T-Rob due to the cost of his draft selection slot.

    I actually agree with this course of action. Let TRob stew a bit. Maybe he will come out with even more to prove and a bigger chip on his shoulder.

    All those comments about TRob make sense to me and I have expected that to happen based on his draft selection.

    Long as he doesn't make any problems sulking and creating Drama then he will be just fine.

    I would not be surprised to see T-Rob not extended and traded during the season, he is a nice chunk of expiring contract with some potential to prove himself to a new team. I suspect that this article is on the nose.

    I doubt the options get picked up on most of these guys because I believe we have their bird rights next offseason.

    Leonar_ has shown nothing to warrant a contract extension

    Last two seasons I felt the same way but this season he's made a case for being a keeper. Yeah, I'm as shocked as anyone but he's not going to break the bank for what he brings to the table

    I don't really care how its done, but I'd like to keep T-Rob out of the if it really came down to it.

    You must have misunderstood me. No do not pick up the option. Let him earn a new contract.

    Nah. They will not give up on Meyers yet. Look at what he did last night. I know it was Preseason but he was hitting from all over the floor and even put in a nifty hook that was money if he can get it to go all the time.

    Size is hard to give up on. Just look at you know who a few years ago.

    That should be evident from the response.
