Not being cut today anymore... now looking to be traded. Making roughly $10M per year which is right around top 10. I'd probably give a mid-round pick for him.

Apparently one team has made an offer.  Hmmm.  I doubt it's us.  Considering they're going to release him and there are multiple other options now I would certainly not give a mid-round pick.  Maybe a Jared Allen style deal-a 6th plus THEY bear the brunt of the salary-sure.

Right, but I was quoting someone about making a trade offer for him being tampering. He's not a FA (have to wait until early March to talk) and isn't released. I'm thinking trade offers can be made at any point, but I was wondering if there was a trade date since the trade deadline for 2016 passed in season.

Got it. I think there was a 3 way miscommunication there. I assumed the original question was assuming that the release had been made. If so we could negotiate with him. If they were dismissing trade offers then we can still make trade offers now right?

LOL I wouldn't accept a mid round pick to take on his salary. Was a great player who has faded every year recently and can't stay healthy. Not worth even half of that to me. Take a 1 year flyer for a couple million, sure, but wouldn't give up anything for him unless it came with a huge pay cut. And it seems the only real interest in a possible trade his been the Jaguars who would give Julius Thomas who they were going to cut anyways to reunite with Gase. I still bet he ends up getting cut.

      DJ Moore. The quitting WR

      By fieryprophet · Posted

      This play was never designed to go to either DJ or Odunze. The primary read is Burden who is stymied early, with the outlet being Kmet if Caleb doesn't like the option for Burden. Given the situation it's pretty obvious the simple play is to take the free yards with Kmet, or if you want to be aggressive just wait a beat longer for Burden to uncover on his double move. If Moore was ever going to be a viable target in this play then Caleb should have started out reading Odunze to hold the safety in the middle and then coming to Moore, but because he started the snap staring down the right and then came back to the middle late it made it where the safety's leverage remained to the outside of Moore, so he would never have imagined that pass actually being thrown to him in that situation. Realistically DJ's best option in that context is to just occupy the safety to leave a hole open for Caleb to get it to Burden, which is probably why he throttles down vs carrying the safety across.

      2026 Mock Drafts

      By panfanman · Posted

      Even with Sonny Styles still on the board I thought it's a no brainer to address the Oline after Icky's injury.  And how can you pass up Fano at 19 given our situation. Then the rest of the draft just kind of made sense with maybe the exception of Klubnik.  But if Canales can fix him and Young goes down. . .I think it's a solid pick. What do you think of this draft?

      Bucky Brooks eats humble pie. You want a couple of slices?

      When we didn't trade him to the Rams or the Bears (I believe the Bears said they would take one of Brown/ Burns/DJ Moore) we should have just signed him and kept him.  We should have traded him to the Rams obviously and we should have kept DJ and traded Burns.  We made all three wrong choices with Burns lol.
