Re: Trade deadline approaching...
 

Some of talk is ridiculous, feels like knee jerk/anger. No way I'm trading Scary or Dotson. Gibson or Brown maybe as they're replaceable. Young I'd prefer to keep but I understand if the offer is good (2nd plus change) you have to give it strong consideration. Fuller maybe too before he goes under FA. I see nobody else who isn't good value to keep or not the core of a rebuilt roster next year.

Yea not looking to trade our younger valuable assets lol but ppl like #99 can go for me.

He's probably about, if not thee, most valuable trade bait right now I'd assume.

No shot I'm thinking of trading 17... lol

Concur. Besides, I wouldn't allow this lame duck staff to make any trade unless it was for a bonafide first or second-round draft pick. IMO, you don't give that sort of autonomy to a staff or front office who likely won't be here once the last game of the season is played in January.

terry for a 2nd? come on. doubt anyone is giving us a 4th for gibson either.

It will hurt to see Fuller go but we need to get what we can get instead of allowing him to walk away for free next year.. No way am I trading Brissett away, it seems like Brissett is working with Howell closely so I want to give Howell all resources to help him succeed.

Re: Trade deadline approaching...
 

Our coaching has been so bad for so long, it’s not hard to imagine some of the folks on these lists going elsewhere and flourishing. And as I don’t trust this regime to get good value in any trade, I’d be happiest doing nothing and letting real grownups deal with the roster starting in January.

Agreed, but with Cousins likely out, I expect the Vikings to be enquiring. If any decent trade capital is on offer, I'm giving it serious consideration. Our wagon is very much hitched to SH and JB isn't coming in and turning this season around. Keep our options open...

Ditto! Unless we're wildly blown away by an offer then I'd rather not allow a lame duck group to make wholesale changes per se'. If they move one of either Sweat or Young then fine. But I do not want this current group trading two or more players as you know they more than likely screw it up.

Sweat and Young are the only ones with trade value here. And frankly, it seems that Sweat is the only one teams are actually asking about.

Re: Trade deadline approaching...
 

There is a report that one team offered a 3rd round pick for Sweat, and it could turn into 2nd round pick if Sweat agrees to an extension with the new team.. Yeah, no thanks. I would prefer to sign Sweat to an extension instead of taking this offer.

Re: Trade deadline approaching...
 

No way I trade anyone… Let the new Staff do all this .

Re: Trade deadline approaching...
 

Really odd how we blast Ron for all the moves he's made here to date, but we trust the guy to make a good trade now? The guy who traded Trent for a 3rd and a 5th??

I say fuck no to Ron making any more deals here, let a new GM sort all of this out. Honestly I'm disappointed new ownership hasn't started to make front office moves. Maybe that's coming soon. It would be nice to hit the offseason running with a new GM in place.

Trade Terry? Some of you have lost your damn minds.

I would do that if true. Getting five years of productivity out of a first round pick and then turning it into a second is a solid deal.

I would hope the ownership, if the plan is to let go of the coaching staff at the end of the season, wouldn't allow the current FO to make the trade without ownership approval. If they do we might have bigger things to worry about with the new owners than we realize.

The key piece is will Sweat want to sign with us. He is a UFA so extending him is off the table. If they know he won't then take the 2nd of a comp 3rd. If he is open to resigning then hopefully they talk that out.
