You trade him because of the playing time conflict, we have a young stud behind him, and if we trade him not only does it save us from giving him a new deal, but it also brings value in any type of trade that we could use to address a different roster hole. That's the value, and it's multi level value. We could still dip into free agency and bring in a Jadeveon Clowney or Joey Bosa to fill the 3rd edge rusher role and give us some insurance. Keeping Greenard on a new deal and continuing to stunt the growth and value of having Dallas Turner on a rookie deal is not only dumb, but it's the most Wilf thing ever

I think it's about asset management and being as young and cost-efficient as possible. When it comes time to pay Turner, I don't think we want to be halfway through a crippling Greenard deal. If the Vikings do decide to keep JG, I think they give him one big year. Didn't they do something similar with Hunter in his final year in Minnesota?
