I agree, but at this point, they need to max him and get his sig on the dotted line. No way around it.
They could get something for facilitating his path to a team of his choosing, but it probably won't be commensurate with the value of DFS/Dinwiddie/unprtected '29 (UNPROTECTED!!).
Even if he's not a fit, better to sign him and trade him a year or two into the deal, after (hopefully) a relatively quiet time here. Or, maybe he fits great and they keep him. Anything but one of those two outcomes and it was one of the dumber trades I can remember.
