Will Green be ready for some rotation role by then? One of the advantages of dealing Powell now is you might be able to do a deal for Collins using 25 and 27 now and retain the flexibility to keep both JRich and THJ (or replace one using space before signing Collins).
Is the assumption that Powell is part of the Collins trade. If not, doesn't 25 & 27 seem expensive for someone that seemingly wants out of their current situation and the team is happy to have him walk?
I just don't know about locking up that many future firsts as you wouldn't have flexibility until that 2025 pick is conveyed and who knows what type of opportunities will arise between now and then.
