The obvious swap would be THJ for Gordon. But I'm not sure that getting Gordon would be the more desirable end of the deal. Offering a first for him would be dumb.
Stats are incredibly similar. Contracts are about the same this year.
But THJ is 4 years younger. OTOH his deal has 2 more years after this one, while EG's will expire. But THJ's deal will get smaller each year, if you want a reasonably priced player rather than air.
