Re: Nate Clements on Trading Block

There is one quick thought though . Lets say we did get him for a first and I really cannot see that happening but lets say we did and then he steps on the field after the bye and solidifies the defence along with Vincent and we make a major run in the second half of the season we could end up a low first round pick that falls into the possbile swap region of the Ducket trade with Denver ... then what happens if we don't have the goods to satisfy that trade or the one with the Bills .

Hopefully he will be in a Skins uniform soon though either the end of the year or now with his ties to both GW and Grey if he wanted to rekindle things and be paid in bucket loads of cash here would be a great fit .

Re: Nate Clements on Trading Block

You could be right - there is a decent chance he will sign with us after the season, but that is a serious "if". If he doesn't get traded, if he doesn't get a much bigger offer elsewhere. How will we strengthen our secondary in the offseason if Clements isn't signable? Rogers has all the tools, and he will put it all together eventually, but we need a veteran presence back there. We can't afford to have him develop in a starting role. I say sign Clements now if it is possible, move Rogers to a nickel role, and let him develop more and eventually replace Springs when he is ready to move to a backup position.
