Saints attempting to trade WR Kenny Stills

Stills was like a 5th round pick whose numbers have been inflated by Brees. We're also in a league where Brandon Marshall went for a 5th and the Texans couldn't find a taker for Andre Johnson.

He's younger on a miniscule contract, so it's not cap related, but still. No higher than a 6th, but they'll never trade him here anyway.

I fail to understand ur logic? A 6th??? Those picks rarely pan out and if so it takes a few years to develop.

So u wouldn't give that up for a player who is very young and has proven he can compete?

Maybe, but I gotta admit I'm a lot less enthusiastic about trading picks now that we have a guy in charge who knows how to use them.

Agreed. It all depends on what they would be willing to take. If Getts agrees to it, I say pull the trigger! He is a great team builder. I can actually say I trust his judgement.

It's market value, pro bowlers are being traded for 5th rounders or being cut altogether and this guy isn't on that level. Stills has speed we could use, but he was a late pick himself, no reason we couldn't find a similar talent late as well. Plus I think Brees makes him, I don't think he's all that special but that's just my opinion.

Plus do you really wanna give the Saints another decent pick? This is all moot anyway since there's no way they'd trade him here.

Normally I agree with you on this.  But, Stills has shown he can deliver in an NFL game and has a lot of upside.  If he coudl be had for a mid round pick, I would pull the trigger.  Basically the same as drafting a guy in the mid rounds....except that Stills is less of a ? because you KNOW what he can do.

 

And....he is stil on a cheap rookie contract.

    • No saying he mostly sucks is saying that he doesn’t suck the minority of the time.   Like if he took 17 tests and had a couple of really good showings and a handful of pretty good scores sprinkled in among the typical sub par results.   Like a golfer who went out and shot an 89.  There will be some real nice shots sprinkled in there but at the end of the day it is still 89.    
    • It's worth mentioning... Game 1: Oct 11 in Raleigh. 4-3 OT win with a complete starting lineup. Game 2: Dec 13 in Philly. 4-3 SO win without Jaccob Slavin. Game 3: Dec 14 in Raleigh. 3-2 SO win with a complete starting lineup. Game 4: Apr 13 in Philly. 3-2 SO loss with the AHL roster.  Those early season games were no indication of the Canes team that finished the season. Miller and Ehlers were still trying to figure things out, Nikishin was still a work in progress and the Stankoven line was just another line. Make no mistake, the Canes team Philly will see is nothing close to what they saw at any point in the season. If the top line starts producing, Freddie stays hot and the blue line does what it does, this could be a sweep as well.
