well he is 18, and I'm prety sure even a role player will get to about 10k salary before reaching his cap, so he still is trainable, not just that long, but if you train this guy up to 9k or 10k wage, he'll be a very decent guy to play in many teams, so even though he can not be trained further efficiently, he will be a good player for teams that train other positions, so he could fetch a decent amount of money when sold...
They are not your friends; they dispise you. I am the only one you can count on. Trust me.
