Steve Smith's son thinks we should make a trade for a certain WR before the deadline

Hmm, for that to have been put out publicly like that sounds like it might possibly have been a topic of conversation within the Smith household.  For someone as prideful and stubborn as Smitty this might be his way of saying "baby give me one more chance"

Now I know the chances of it happening are absolutely slim to fuging none, but it's an interesting possibility.  I definitely wouldn't be opposed to it as long as it were made clear this isn't his locker room anymore.

As long as we didn't give up anything of significant value I wouldn't have a problem with it for the simple reason he would help us win.  I agree that Cam feeling obligated to target him more than he should just to keep him quiet is a concern but I wouldn't not do a good deal just because of that concern.  Can't imagine it happening though.  It would be an interesting day on the Huddle for sure.

I've moved on, but I wouldn't be opposed to trading something for Smith. Let's get that man a ring.

I'm usually one of those guys that don't want to hear about him until he retires, but he's a legend and if we make it the superbowl, I want that man to have a ring.

    • If you look at almost all Daniels stats, they are as good or better than last year minus perhaps Completion Percentage. I don't think Daniels himself is having very much less individual success than the Redskins are reverting to the mean.  https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/46003861/nfl-teams-likely-decline-lose-more-games-2025-season-predictions-vikings-chiefs-commanders-lions-colts#wsh Barnwell wrote about them in the preseason as a team that had an inordinate amount of luck or success in one score games that wasn't very likely to be repeated.
    • We thinking of the same Mike White? He probably won’t even make it off the practice squad.
    • I would heavily push back on the notion of Tomlin and Cowher inheriting "collapsed teams." From 1980 to 1991(prior to Cowher and after their Super Bowl victories) the Steelers experienced just 4 sub .500 seasons. In fact the winning percentage for those years was 0.505. At most that was relatively mediocre, something fairly akin to the pre-Tepper Panthers. From Cowher through Tomlin(1992 to Present) it has been the NFL's best franchise. 22 playoff appearances, 4 Super Bowl Appearances, 2 Titles, 15 times winning the division. In fact they have only experienced 3 sub .500 records in that 34 season span.  That isn't ever a scenario where rebuilding happens. It's constant and consistent retooling so that your franchise floor is always high. It's smart business decisions, exceptional drafting and quality personnel moves that create a situation where that floor STAYS high.  It was precisely BECAUSE we opted to go through a complete teardown and "rebuild" without any of that competence being in the organization at all that led us to where we are currently. A situation that will more than likely continue for well over a decade longer.  Long term successful franchises do not "rebuild." They are in a constant state of competent flux that sustains them through some leaner periods without ripping the foundation completely out that led to that success in the first place.
