re: You can't trade Zion

You stand pat and hope for health. Thats our best option even if no one wants to hear it.

the part of the scenario where he balloons after an injury must stop.
he cannot be trusted to choose food wisely.
all his intake must be monitored and most of it preselected like his chef making him a vegetable juice.

If I'm the gm that's in the contract and it isn't.

so my reality is to play him in summer league to create the market. a couple nice games then he hits 40 once.
then I trade him.
zion after a couple of his typical 25 7 4 and a 40 7 5 and you get back a haul.

as for needing stars to win it all lets get out of the hole first. you can't count on him. now on top of injuries and conditioning, he's now allowed to dramatize being scared of being needed.
no way I start 23 24 hoping he plays.
would you pay top dollar for a top 5 QB who is out 9 games of the 17 every year and never played in the playoffs even once.
in the event of the most recent playoff loss he refused to dress, on account of every one was depending on him and he didn't want to let them down.
