Message: [QUOTE="Kooly87, post: 3103479, member: 9326"] I think it's a tricky situation we find ourselves in with Milford. On balance, he hasn't proven to be great value over the course of his most recent deal. Logically speaking, he probably deserves a lower offer for his next deal more in line with his performances and his standards. That said, it's almost a given that Milford will be expecting at bare minimum the same money and more realistically, his agent will be encouraging him to ask for more money. This leaves us in a precarious position going into this year becasuse: A) He has another mediocre or even poor season, and we probably don't retain him B) He has a great season, and we're in the difficult position of probably having to outbid other clubs to keep him, as he's definitely the kind of player other clubs will be sniffing around for, despite the fact that we've realistically been overpaying him for the last few seasons. Either way, I think it's reasonably unlikely that Milford will remain a Bronco. If he plays poorly, we probably don't offer him another deal, or we offer a reduced one that other clubs can easily beat. Alternatively, he has a great season and suddenly he's a hot commodity again and we can't afford to keep him. Maybe that's a pessimistic way to look at it, but I think Milford's time here is very likely numbered. For virtually identical reasons, I actually think Jack Bird's days here are numbered too almost regardless of how this season pans out. [/QUOTE]
