boo7382 1,440 Report post Posted December 14, 2010 A friend just texted me. Told me that on WFNZ they are talking about how Smitty had a closed door meeting with Richardson today asking for a trade. This severely depresses me as I would love to see him retire here but.... I guess we should have seen this coming.:cryin: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Carl Spackler 3,935 Report post Posted December 14, 2010 Trade deadline passed long ago. So why have this talk now? Why not March? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CRA 14,144 Report post Posted December 14, 2010 I think Smitty has had lots of closed door meetings over the years. Some his choice, some not. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Saltman 1,398 Report post Posted December 14, 2010 Hurney should have traded him when nobody thought he would be traded. Now that the whole league knows that he wants out a lower draft pick is more probable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Carl Spackler 3,935 Report post Posted December 14, 2010 Why not wait to see who the new coach is? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Now that the whole league knows that he wants out a lower draft pick is more probable. Exactly, it's Peppers all over again. Wait until the guy is screaming to get out until you do anything and screw over any chance you have at getting decent value for him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Saltman 1,398 Report post Posted December 14, 2010 we could have def gotten a 3rd or maybe a second before the trade deadline. Now a 4th or 5th is more probable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cracka McNasty 8,971 Report post Posted December 14, 2010 well poo, if he does leave and luck doesn't declare then we actually HAVE to draft AJ green then... damn. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mmmbeans 443 Report post Posted December 14, 2010 wait a sec, since when is smitty "screaming for a trade?" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Carl Spackler 3,935 Report post Posted December 14, 2010 Or, we draft Newton and make AE a WR who actually plays! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
R0CKnR0LLA 7,867 Report post Posted December 14, 2010 Why not wait to see who the new coach is? New HC, new OC, new offensive system, new QB... Smitty only has so many years left in the league, don't blame him for not wanting to wait for all these new pieces to work themselves out, especially when there's no guarantee they even will at all.
