It doesn't make sense to me.  You never sell your best assets in order to raise money to buy lottery tickets.  If a team wants to trade draft picks for CJ, then yes go for it.  Mac is clearly the better option and is pretty much cheap "insurance" should something happen to Trevor.

You bought a car a few months back for $1000. It's decent, but you know if you want to keep it long-term, you're going to have to pay $4000 in repair work by winter's end. Someone offers you $1700 for the car today.

Do you sell, knowing that you can probably find a $700 car that is good enough to get you through the winter, then you can seriously start shopping for a better ride with your $4k budget and an extra $1k from your quick deal; or
Do you stay put and see whether or not it's worth paying the $4000 after the winter? 

There's risk in both options.
