If there was truly a way to upgrade the Henne position by snatching someone off another roster who was available to be pursued, Caldwell would have followed that path.

 

Correction, if they were worth the price to get them he'd pursue.

 

Henne is bad, really bad, but that doesn't mean guys that would require picks in trade for them are more worth the team's time.

 

There's no point in trading for someone just because they're better than Henne. There is a lot of room between Henne and "ELITE". If they're not real upper tier starter material then there's no purpose in trading for them even though there really are a lot of backups that are better than Henne.
