Trade deadline thread

I've seen a number of threads regarding specific players before tomorrow's trade deadline.

Realistically, does anyone expect Hurney to do anything? We're already without a 2018 4th from the Andy Lee deal (a pick that the Browns will undoubtedly bungle) and I'm not sure how steep a price they would want to pay to upgrade certain spots.

@Jeremy Igo, any educated guesses based on what you've observed?

Again, if there is any year to do it its this one. But Hurndawg doesn't personally benefit from rocking the boat so I imagine they'll sit on their hands and talk about cliches that involve the words "process" and "trusting" and all the other stuff that's never put a trophy in the case.

i can see him making small move for a backup oline in exchange for a 5th. Id trade our 3rd rounder for a above average LT. That way we kick kalil out to RT and even tho its still expensive its not as bad as i see him being better especially with how our scheme has the RG help the RT and the LG slide over his man and then help C here and there.

We should definitely be inquiring about Hilton. We desperately need a field stretcher. Enough of this always focusing on the future type of approach. Strike while the iron is hot. Seems like the future never seems to actually get here with this franchise. 

Are you willing to give up a 2nd or 3rd round pick for him? He has around $4M in salary left for this year which isn't a big deal but the last 3 years of his deal carry salaries of $11M, $13M and $14.5M. That's market value for him during his last 3 prime years, but it also probably means we have to let Norwell go after the year.

Yes. Some of that base could be converted to bonus if we needed it for cap flexibility. 

As for Norwell, he's a guy coaches and fans love due to his effort level but in terms of talent he's fairly easily replaceable. If he's going to command big money for an OG I'd let him walk anyway. I just don't think you can afford to carry two big money OGs. It'd be reminiscent of the days when we were limited by the Double Trouble contracts.

Fair enough. I tend to agree on Norwell. Watching him on pulling plays is very frustrating. He clearly doesn't have the athleticism to do so.

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      By Icege · Posted

      WR: Nico, Woods, Tank (R) TE: Schultz OL: Tunsil/Howard/Deiter/Mason/Fant vs. WR: Chark, Thielen, Mingo (R) TE: Hurst OL: Icky/Zavala (R)/Bozeman/Jensen (R)/Moton   Panthers' had the better OL before losing BC week 1 and AC week 4 which is kind of ironic considering how in the following year DB went down in W1 and Shaq in W4 resulting in the defense going all to Hell. CJ has done amazing in Houston, but he also wasn't asked to carry Zavala, Jensen, Mingo, Hurst, and Chark as a rookie.

      Past 5 seasons, IMO CJ Stroud and Joe Burrow are the 2 best young QBs that have emerged in the league in that window.  They also didn’t need vets to be their primary pass catchers.  They helped fellow youngsters be great at WR.   almost all the other young QBs have been paired up with vets in their top options….and haven’t been as promising.  so it isn’t Madden.  But the league hasn’t played out as you suggest it does.   Good QBs make others around them better.

      In 2023 their roster wasn’t stacked. They nailed the poo out of the 2023 draft and since they knew Davis Mills wasn’t the guy, they tanked properly to get pick 2. They also took Cleveland’s ridiculous offer for Watson unlike us with Burns. Houston received enough draft capital to jump up to 3 while picking up the right guys in Anderson and Stroud. The Texans were not stacked or better than us in 2023. They had 11 total wins from 2020 to 2022. They didn’t have a terrible front office so they made sure they got their QB of the future while tanking well and getting more draft picks. They are a textbook study of what we should have done in 2022/2023 offseason even though people in here still think tanking is a bad word and our culture would be bad if we were the Texans. We literally had the chance to be the Texans right now and fuged it up.
