What realistic player would you trade DJ for?

He's not. The Panthers picked up his 5th year option. They have him until at least the end of next year.

Ok, fair enough. Forgot that one, but the player I listed was drafted one spot ahead of DJ, and has his 5th year picked up as well. So it would still work. Would you trade DJ for a quality, young LT?

As much as I’d want a quality tackle, I can’t imagine another team doing that when it’s far easier finding a WR. I think trading him for a 1st is far more likely if we actually decided not to resign him to a big deal. 
 

And to all the homer’s who think this is a ridiculous question, when did a non top 10 WR become untouchable?? Some of y’all are the main ones who clowned Hurney for always thinking with his heart and not his head, yet y’all are just as biased.

Picks is the answer for this hypothetical. I don't think we could effectively trade him for players in positions we need the most. Any cheap talent that we can build through the draft would be a huge boost.

Something like a 1st and 3rd would be ideal for his current value. If he blows up this year, it will be interesting.

2 1sts before I even start the conversation 

That's not actually a real thing. Hopkins didn't even technically get a 1st round pick in his trade nor did Antonio Brown when he was initially shipped to the Raiders.

I said a 1st and a third but I am not sure that would even get something we could get.

I wouldn't. He'll only be 26 by the time he signs his next contract and this is a league driven by passers and receivers. The Bucs have a stacked receiving core and they added another rookie Brady has already taken under his wing. I'm tired of seeing these other motherfugers win rings.

Hopkins didn’t because the Texans organization is inept.  Hence why the media raked them through the coals.

raiders got AB for cheap because the off the field issues.

Moore is young.  And a clean off the field.

I don't think any WR in the NFL is likely to command two 1st round picks. WR is a critical position but not many teams are going to trade more than a 1st. I can't actually recall a trade in recent memory where a WR was traded for a first round pick.

    • So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?
    • Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.
    • Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
