Re: Potential trades

Kyle Fuller has been out 2 years after torn ACL. Be interesting to see if he's fully fit, but given past performance, he could at least push the incumbents. And if we can get someone to trade for Forbes...

Call up Philly, see if they got any more of those 3rd rounders they're looking to get rid of.

Philly gave us a 3rd for Dotson

Adams a conditional 3rd and Cooper a 3rd round

Not bad

We're winning at least 1 Super Bowl in the next 10 years.

Re: Potential trades

I am pretty sure I would be just fine with a big splash trade on the defensive side if it was someone who they thought would definitely stop the bleeding on defense, like a lock down man coverage corner, or a double digit sack monster...maybe both.

This team could be a true contender this year. Why not?

Re: Potential trades

Agreed, as long as we don't mortgage the future, what's the harm in aiming for a playoff run this year?

Re: Potential trades

Rumours circulating about Jones (Pats) and Newsome (Browns). Both 31, and neither exactly exciting. But that means likely low cost to the buying team.

Re: Potential trades

They can't fix the defense by making mid season trades. That's not happening. It's going to have to happen during the off season by drafting and adding a free agent or two.

In the meantime, get Davis back on the field and out him at his natural position. He can spell Wagner who got abused last week. He at least he adds some speed. Not a fan of just benching him. Seems kinda of useless sitting one of your best athletes.

Being athletic isn't enough to be given the job. Maybe the coaches don't trust Davis to do his job accordingly.

We've seen him play LB w/ very mixed results. But he can help, not saying he is a starter but just putting him in street clothes on gameday when your defense gets torched seems ridiculous. He's not a pass rusher. That's not his position. But he can blitz. He can run down ball carriers. He can run with tight ends.

After four years in the NFL Davis still doesn't have a clue about how to play the game of football. He represents another wasted draft pick of the Snyder era.

Exactly. I think it is clear that we would not have been any better off with Davis dressed than with him on the bench at this point.

I don't know about that. If there's someone out there that's a good fit, it's only week 7. The goal is to be clicking down the stretch, like seven games from now. There's no reason in the world why a good mid-season trade for the right player can't help this defense, even if that player can't contribute immediately.

Now I don't know if that player (or players) is out there and whether the price is right, but to just say: "nah, not interested in helping the defense this year", is a bad approach IMO.
