It's the beginning of the offseason and I declined an old declining veteran's team option. He won't listen to any extension offers.

In the salary arbitration screen, he is listed as a free agency eligible player, and there's a checkbox which allows me to 'Submit $15,000,000 Qualifying Offer'.

I understand that if he accepts the offer, I get stuck with him for one more year. If he declines, I will be compensated with a draft pick.

The question is, given that I never played him, and that he's very angry with the team and wanted to be traded, and that I declined his option year, and the fact that he will not listen to any extension offers, would he be more willing to either accept or decline the $15M qualifying offer??

Under normal circumstances, given that he played so bad, he would definitely take the $15M, but I am just wondering if the fact that he hates the team and wont listen to any more offers would have a deciding factor in him accepting or declining the QO.
