Can't trade rights to RFA
I have an exceptional 23-year-old RFA (5-star ability and potential) that I need to move. I would like to keep him, but I have too many high-dollar contracts with no move clauses. When I try to trade him for a 1st rounder, the opposing GM always says, "I want a much better player or pick in return for giving up a a draft of that value." This happens for every team, even top teams with no hope of picking in the top 20 next season.
I was hoping someone would just offer-sheet him so I could take their picks in return, but his current asking price is $14M/season.
