Mr. Rental The Rented has to come if only to feel out Arizona as a potential suitor for his upcoming free agency.
(This is in no way, shape or form a type of bait.)
"Love/hate this trade because we gave up not much/too much for a potentially impactful role player/half season rental who will see limited play."
This is two opposing takes mashed together:
"Love this trade because we gave up not much for a potentially impactful role player."
"Hate this trade...
I also said potentially impactful role-player. That was the bit. Again, why am I being being dragged into an actual argument about Shaheed from a facetious post where I'm talking out both sides of my mouth? Cherry pick someone with an actual horse in this race.
Why am I being being dragged into an actual argument about Shaheed from a facetious post where I'm talking out both sides of my mouth? Well, okay. I can be a "I know Shaheed is a rental" guy for this post:

Did you see that one bad play he had? The one that has and will continue to define his entire career in its entire entirety? We would need to attach a pick just to get a team to take his salary and tolerate his presence.
Some credit goes to the 2024 draft. 6 QBs taken in the first 12 picks and no Trey Lance type busts to immediately switch a team back into looking for another QB. Prior to trades and other FA signings, Sam's choices for signing to be the starter were between what? Us and any or none of Indy...

That's insane that you think the Cards, Titans, Commanders, Falcons, Vikings, Panthers, and 49ers are all going to win against us. Have you even looked at how poorly those teams are doing this year?
Our offense would be pretty crazy if DK didn't go diva on us and we still had him this year (on a more reasonable contract). That'd require him to undertake a complete personality change and wouldn't be possible though.
