Robby Anderson being shopped?

[Jon Snow]

Not sure if the story is true but Robbie has become expendable since the draft.  We now have insurance against injury and contract disputes.  I like the way our new guy is doing business.

[Khyber53]

Robby caught a lot of passes for us last year and put up some serious yardage, but it started tailing off as the season went on while both DJ and Curtis got more of the lion's share of the work. That being said, he was still a valuable asset for us and one you'd think we'd want to keep.

Anderson is a knucklehead, though, and has a way of talking himself into trouble. Not the brightest tool in the shed, perhaps he said some things as the season wore on that weren't taken well by coaches and management, but that didn't make it to the media. In a system like what Rhule is building, having a naysayer or grumbler on the team can be a big problem. I haven't heard anything to speak to, just conjecture on my part.

 

[Mr. Scot]

The Camp Confidential video does kinda make this story look like bullsh-t.

[heyzeus]

Didn't Anderson sign a two year 20 million dollar contract to join his college coach's team and then produce season best totals in receptions and yards with Teddy Two Yards firing wormburners?

Now he's hanging out at Disney with Sideshow Bob.  Sounds like dude is totally balling.

I wanted us to take Fields.  I feared the new GM from Seattle would take Horn.  Which he did. 

is Robbie Anderson sitting here? Robbie could be.  How likely is it?  I don't know.  I'm not very good at math and giving you accurate odds of likely something is to be true or false.    Which Robbie Anderson are we talking about?  Robbie from accounting?  Are we talking a physical human?  I don't know man.   Anything is possible.   I mean Sam Darnold could be great.  Never rule anything in life 100% out.....at most I would go with 99.99999999999999999%.  But never 100%. 

 

No go full 100%...

I can see them doing something like "hey will somebody make us a stupid offer for a WR who had a good year with a not so good qb".  Nothing wrong with that, and it doesn't mean we are really trying to get rid of Anderson.  

[MechaZain]

Robby might be the most tradeable asset on the team right now. Still pretty young, career year, position we can afford to downgrade. I think this was just due diligence going into draft night. 

[Jai.]

I think it has more to do with the fact that DJ, Donte and Taylor all are going to need extensions really soon, and we have more of a influx of talent at WR, just seeing what the market was/is!   Just my opinion

I'd probably vote Brian Burns for that spot. On ability, McCaffrey but Burns has an infinitely more tradable contract.

Mind you, I'm not interested in trading either one.

I'd go Burns, Brown and then Chinn.  Gets hard after that.

I can agree with the choices, but not the order. I think Chinn would net a better trade than Brown.

Burns likely does have to be at the top though because the league puts a premium on pass rushers.

I mean Chinn was the better player last vs Brown.  I just think the positions would make Brown the more attractive trade option given the value/importance of DL play vs what is behind it.

Possible. Depends on whether you have a team that emphasizes line play or secondary.

Rivera up in Washington would likely go with the lineman, whereas Legion of Boom era Seattle would probably go with Chinn.

Starting from scratch? Teams aren't to start on the backend though.  That wasn't really Seattle.   LOB IMO is on par with Tom Brady for NE.  Late round lotto tickets that just happened to hit.   

Kinda a unique anomaly what happened.   They hit two DB All Pros in the 5th round.... in back to back drafts.   Just insane.   That was the foundation of the LOB.
