Trade Deadline Moves, News, and Speculation


Leeroy Jenkins PhD

Recommended Posts

Figured we should have a post for any trades made today before the deadline.  I will attempt to keep this updated throughout the day.

Vernon Davis - Traded from SanFran to Denver.  (Swap 2016 6th and 7th, and a 2017 6th)

The Titans have fired Ken Whisenhunt.

49ers signing Pierre Thomas according to a source

Lions WR Calvin Johnson reportedly not at practice this morning.

A fun one to watch: #Patriots have interest in #Titans CB Jason McCourty to pair him with his twin, Devin. Alas, deal not expected right now

Teams have been talking to 49ers about their OL. Sense they get is Staley more available than some others

Cowboys have released Joseph Randle.

Chargers' WR Keenan Allen underwent a kidney procedure – not a surgery – and could be out for season, per league sources. 2015 uncertain.

Not that there was much of a chance, but #49ers aren’t trading Colin Kaepernick. They haven’t ruled him out starting later in the season.

Names I've heard the most on during deadline day: Staley (among other 49ers) , J. Cook, Kruger, Mingo, Streater, M. Cooper, Willie Young,

I don't want to disrupt chemistry, but Ginn has dropped several passes with nothing but the endzone in front of him. It doesn't hurt as bad against JAX and IND, because we won.  However, in January, those drops cannot happen, and I don't think it's fixable on the fly. It sucks bc Ginn has had his best years here in Carolina and continuously gets separation from good corners. It's not the rest of the personnel that concerns me (though lack of pass rush does), but if we have the chance to add a Garcon/Jeffrey/Floyd without hurting our cap long-term (Norman, Short) then I think we should pull the trigger. 

Cam is having a phenomenal year and has improved his touch and deep ball, as well as his patience and progressions. SB windows are usually small, and at 7-0, if we need a more sure-handed WR to help this offense, I'm okay with it.  Conversley, if it doesn't happen, I'm not losing sleep over it..... I just think that the unit of Ginn/Brown/Cotchery isn't the kind of group that marches through the playoffs to Levi's Stadium.

    • Having trouble finding all these articles saying the Raiders withheld information. Here’s the latest from Crosby’s surgeon: ElAttrache told ESPN's Adam Schefter on Wednesday morning that Crosby was "doing very well in the early part of his rehab and recovery from surgery to treat a significant meniscus tear and the related stress injury to the bone and cartilage in his knee. He is certainly on track in his planned program." "We truly respect the work of the Ravens' staff with Maxx regarding the contract physical exam. We also understand the challenge the staff faces when tasked to provide a future risk assessment based on an evaluation early in the recovery process," ElAttrache said. "This is especially challenging when dealing with an elite player like Maxx considering the level of commitment necessary for a team to obtain him. The timing of this assessment is unfortunate because the apparent risk will lessen as his recovery progresses and his return to performance over the next few months becomes clear."     So the Ravens excuse is the future risk assessment based on the physical, not that the Raiders withheld information. They found an excuse to save face publicly. They had the right to cancel the trade for no reason at all, but they’re trying to save face with the most acceptable reasoning they can find. I’ve heard and seen the Ravens getting dragged everywhere for this. You know what would be an easy way to put a stop to that if you’re the Ravens and the Raiders were actually the shady ones withholding information? Just come out and say that you were not given all the medical information. But they aren’t saying that. I guess they’re just taking the bullet for the Raiders just because?    Speculation indeed.
    • Two first round picks for a guy with very questionable knees who will be 29 this summer. Yes it is safe to say the Ravens got cold feet.
    • The salary cap is the reason we got Phillips and Lloyd
