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.

      a look at our 19 udfas

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      I tend to look at all of these guys and wonder how committed they are to doing special teams? It's a big deal when you're fighting for roster spots. And we need massive refreshes to all phases of the special teams game. And the idea that four or five of these players could see rotational use outside of special teams would be a win. This team has accumulated quite a bit of dead wood over the last five years and its time to take an axe to some of it. These new fellows have a shot to benefit from that if they can really push. That being said, wow that receivers room is crowded right now. I'm not sure if I was a vet player with more than 2 years experience other than Adam Thielen if I'd be too sure of my future here. Tet is guaranteed a spot, Coker earned his for sure and they aren't done with XL developing yet. That's only two to three spots left for the entire room. It's going to be very competitive and better for Bryce's future, too. Safety and linebacker are the opportunity spots here this season. There's room for the right guy and we may see a starter eventually from one of these UDFAs, either by merit or injury.

      Aho and Jarvis just gripping it too tight right now. Relax, play their 200 ft game and the shots will start to find the net. Freddie has been excellent and welcome back Mista Svechnikov. Burns.....well, thank goodness for Slavin.
