Ted Ginn up for trade?

[TN05]

If Byrd is going to be out long-term, this might be worth a trade. Could pick up punt/kick return duties and also replace Byrd and Torrey Smith. He's not a great receiver but he's faster than Torrey and Cam trusts him.

The Saints aren’t gonna trade with us midseason

[OneBadCat]

What's it matter if Byrd is out a few weeks? We're not really throwing him the ball, or to Moore or Samuel all that much. Might as well wait for him to come back and hope he makes plays when he gets the chance.  I see some here wanting to unload Byrd but it doesn't hurt us to keep him when we aren't even throwing the ball that well right now.

[Mr. Scot]

I'm not sure there's any indication the Saints want to trade him, but even if there were, would they really trade him to a division rival they're going to see twice before the season's over?

And again, if they do, that sounds like one of those trades where they ask for four fingers, both nuts and an eye in return.

Byrd is out again?

[Palmetto]

No thanks.  lets just get the ball to the young play making WRs thats on the team Moore and Samuel

Yep... and it ain't like Ginn left on good terms.

But the Saints would never trade him to us, and especially since we are still going to play them twice before the end of the year.

[Wolfcop]

The way he acted last year, I wouldn't take him for a bag of peanuts.

If Tre’quan Smith continues to do well in Ginn’s Absence you never know.

Offer them CAP for Ginn, straight-up.

Edit: And then cut Torrey.

Why would we trade anything of value for someone that doesn't want to play for us?

That bridge was already wobbly when he signed with the Saints, but it was basically lit on fire in the playoffs last season. He made how he felt about the Panthers pretty clear.

Byrd doesn't seem to be in our plans at WR and Torrey Smith shouldn't be. Funchess, Samuel, Moore, and Wright should be getting all of the snaps at WR.

I don't know why these things surprise people. It's a business. You wouldn't want to stick it to your former employer if they didn't want to pay you what you felt you were worth and a competitor offered you more? Of course you would.
