Shanahan's 45 in R10 technically clears his 35 BE but cash gen is still bleeding at -$1,652/wk — that means the price keeps falling regardless of this marginal tick. After scores of 34, 44, 31, a 45 is not a recovery signal on a 16-game FWD whose early-season promise (78, 76) is a distant memory. The cash gen story is dead. Avoid — there is nothing to pick up here and no price to wait out.
