Making A Trade... Safety on the block(Titans)?

[MichaelNewtonII]

I'd love VJax but they aren't going to trade within the division

We get tre boston, answers on the roster, him and colin jones would turn our team around and maybe decoud in the nickle worth a shot

[AndrewLaskoski]

It's been said that Tony Carter the CB from Denver can be had for draft considerations... Could be a Captain type player where we play him in the slot when necessary & let him outside otherwise, definitely cannot be worse than Cason has been... Has speed which we are desperately lacking in the secondary

@RapSheet: Vincent Jackson still generating trade interest. Among the more than 4 teams calling around: Eagles, Pats, Seahawks. Bucs want real value

[The NFL Shield At Midfield]

Patriots will get him for a 4th round pick or something

@InsideNFLMedia: .@RapSheet: "Bucs would be willing to trade Vincent Jackson for the right price. What would that be? A second round pick."

If the team loses today, does Gettlemen have an option?  He really needs to make a move.  However, if we beat Seattle and especially if New Orleans loses, do you make a trade with a 2.5 game lead? 

 

I really think the decision here will be based on 2 things--is a player available for a decent asking price?  Does Rivera have no hope of fixing the problem?

 

If the plan is to reinstate Hardy (if they feel he is going to win the case), then they could simply wait for him as long as they are in first place in the South.  I am not 100% convinced he will never play for the Panthers again.

We're 7 games in, I think regardless of what happens today we have a pretty good sample size of what this team is. Very inconsistent, still rely on bounces to go our way.

Our 2 wins against Detroit and Chicago were evident of that. You could easily argue both teams beat themselves. Some bad turnovers by both teams.

Our 3 losses have all been UGLY. This team as it stands now wouldn't stand a chance in the playoffs if we were to somehow limp into them. I think a move needs to be made at this point.

Like you said, is there a playoff worth trading for that can make an impact. I say yes, but who knows.

Even last year--where would we be if SF was not banged up (10-9 win), if Wallace catches that pass, if Kuechly gets flagged vs. Brady, if Ryan's center made a good snap, etc.?  Heck, just those 4 games alone would have dropped us to 8-8--which is more descriptive of the team we actually had.  We got lucky last year. 

 

I want to see a trade regardless, but it seems winning--no matter how we do it--causes us to hold our cards.

It only matters if they have won Super Bowls

So, what you're saying, is that it doesn't matter how good any player in the NFL is, as long as they don't win the super bowl? Basically, only 53 players are good, then.
