Payne is probably an obvious outgoing one. I just don't see them extending him, instead trying to get value from a good but inconsistent player. And he'll want paying too.
Does Mikey have any value now? I think he's gone after this season anyway, so getting a low pick for him instead of nothing...
Do we look to trade off value now and give up on this season? If so, Diggs could be shipped. I personally don't like it as it removes a good weapon from Daniels, but he'll have some value.
Trading in is a quandary. If we win 2 more games before the deadline, however likely that is, we could be looking to stay in the race this season. If not, do we bring in players with an eye to next year or just sell? If we're competitive I'd like to see a CB and OL brought in, but aside from Porter (too expensive now?) who is there?

Fans and talking heads have always been bad at predicting the value of players in a trade. Look at Porter, everyone thought it was going to take at least one first day pick and he went for far less, then Harrison, Jr was predicted to go for a 4th or 5th round and went for way more.
If I had to guess we could get a day 3 pick for Payne. I would guess from a WR perspective Terry would be the one they would move. He will be entering year 3 of his contract but it is very team friendly in terms of if he gets released. The fact that he is under contract for one more year should bring in more value than Diggs.
I don't see anyone parting with an O-line man there is such a dearth of talent there in the league for many obvious reasons but mostly because it is the largest squad on the field so finding 5 starters and then 4-5 quality back ups is such a challenge. Maybe CB? But if Amos comes back and is playing will with Robertson is that where we want to make a trade? I feel like maybe edge would be a place we want better production?
