if we give him a contract where we can void or trade him without a huge penalty, it'd make it easier, but you'd still lose out if you had to use it (lower trade value, less interest, wasted pick, etc).

if we could get him and trade springs, that might make it a little more bearable... when in doubt, pass though. no move is better than a bad move.

What do you think would have been the better move? The Falcons trading DeAngelo Hall for the #31 pick, or the Redskins trading the #6 overall for Lance Briggs and the #31?

well, it would've been the #6 and mcintosh for the #31 and briggs, so it's easy to go with hall on that one. they can get rid of a bad locker room guy and end up with the #31, which is high enough to draft his (very very cheap, but not as talented) replacement.

on briggs, not only are you giving up insane trade value and money, but you've got guys like vilma that could be cheaper and less costly to trade for. I really don't think we need briggs as much as other positions either.

Rocky is what they wanted, but that's not what we were offering

i know, but without him, there wasn't a deal.

I think the price tag all the way around is too much for this guy. His contract is too large for us and we would ahve to give up more than i feel we need to to obtain him.
