I’d give that up along with Jackson in a heartbeat. 2 2nd round picks are equal to three 1st. Some are willing to trade next years 1st for a trade up in the draft to #3 so I wouldn’t blink at 2 1st round picks for a 25 year old top 5 QB

I'd love to be high enough for that to make sense.

I'd consider that. I'd try to get at least a mid-rounder or two back from them. Two 1sts, two 2nds, and two defensive starters is a STEEP ask.

Shaq has no trade value to anyone. DJ has a little. They are looking for cheap players on rookie deals. Not overpriced, average OLBs and an inconsistent CB with one cheap year left.

So, basically it would be two 1sts, two 2nds, and two of Burns, Chinn, and Brown.

Sorry, I just can't do it. I'd LOVE to have Watson but I can't do that. That's basically the equivalent of four 1sts and two 2nds.

That's not just 4 1sts. 1sts dont always work out. That's 2 rookie contracts for high quality starters. Plus 2 1sts plus 2 2nds. Part of the issue with Watson is the size of his contract. You cant give away your impact players on their rookie contracts plus draft picks. Burns and Chinn for Watson because of contracts would make more sense.

Not really losing much with Jackson and with Shaq it would be a wash because although he is very solid (and underrated by many on this board) getting rid of that contract will help us tremendously in the long run and I believe replacing him would be much easier. 

Fitts specifically mentioned Jackson when he was talking about our core young defensive players. I think he was actually the second name out of his mouth if I recall correctly. It shocked me too, but evidently we're really high on Jackson. Turf toe is a bitch.

Unfortunately, this is correct. They will want 2 of YGM, Burns, Brown, Chinn. That's it. Take your pick. Me? I tell them no thanks and take my chance in the draft.

Yeah, if it came down to two 1sts, two 2nds, plus say Burns and Chinn or they were going to accept another offer on the table then I'd wish them the best of luck with that other offer.

This years 1st/2nd and next years 1st/2nd along with Jackson and Shaq.

They’ll want Jackson. Jackson when on the field was statistically a top ten corner last year. He had the top 5 lowest passer rating when throwing his direction. There is a reason fitts is talking donte up.

People don’t realize how good Jackson was last year when on the field. I get we are hard on him here, but statistically he had a strong season. Plus Fitts is most likely hyping Jackson for trade bait.

He didn’t say 2 young defensive superstars...

 

2021 and 2022 1st rounders; 2022 and 2023 2nd rounders; Donte Jackson and Shaq Thompson

      T-Mac Jerseys?

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      lol well that kinda ended up working out in the end, even though I still don't have my jersey yet. Was supposed to ship by tomorrow this time, but just got another email saying it was delayed another 3 weeks and because it's been delayed so long, I had to tell them to keep the order or cancel it, but gave me a 25% off my next order as an apology. Well, my original fear came true and they are now selling the FUSE version (but still not the Blue unfortunately) before the one I ordered was ever shipped. But that's awesome, because I was able to use that coupon to order the FUSE instead and then cancelled the original order.  So I got the jersey I wanted for only $6.30 more than the crappier version costs, and it also says it will be shipped immediately and get here early next week, or 2 weeks before the other was now supposed to be shipped out.

      I've watched this and think we are well underway.  Believe it or not, Bryce is a big part of this.  The way he bounced back with such grace.  And we've got a lot of young players who want to make their mark, Dave is giving them an opportunity.  I loved our draft.  I like the number of guys we brought in, and they will help build the culture we want under Dave.  We're getting closer, and I think we'll see more wins this year than most of the board. The right culture breeds winning, and winning builds the right culture.  Imho, it's coming.

      As others have said it's both. One creates the other. But it also takes time sometimes years. And there have been teams lately with new car smell coaching staffs that looked like they were putting it together quickly but things came crashing back down to Earth. Sustainability is the key. For that to happen the meddling of our owners has to stop and they cannot be tempted to return to their ways over any bump in the road either.
