Depending what player we target via trade or MLE, I would greatly prefer resigning Powell over McGee. Hopefully we can find a spot for McGee somewhere. I just trust Powell much more. Not sure if him coming back is in the cards now.
It all depends if you are worried about the hard cap or not. If we don't use the MLE (and replace it with a min), we are $13mm under the hard cap (and have $15mm to use because adding a body removes the need to account for the minimum) given the previous assumptions. We could use that money on Powell and the spread on a trade match instead of the MLE. They've given themselves options.
