A trade is a coming....

So if a trade is coming to address linebacker I'm all for it. But I'm curious, can anyone identify a back OT around the league who would likely be available for trade assets reasonable for a non starter?

I don't know that I would expect to see a blockbuster deal for anyone. So, if that is the case, it will be interesting to see what deal(s) we end up accomplishing.

Do we want to give up much more 2022 draft capital?

Well kind of my underlying point was, given the demand for good tackles, I kind of doubt there is anyone out there worth having that we could acquire for anything we're willing to give up for a non starter. I just think any team with quality OT backups is already keenly aware that they are only one bad play away from that player protecting their QB. I doubt they're gonna give up that backup tackle for anything reasonable, and let's be blunt here, the few organizations dumb enough to do so aren't the kind that tend to have quality depth.

Do YOU want whoever is the Jets/Jags/Lions backup swing OT?

Same. If there's anything, I feel like it'll be for depth, not a starter.

I mean....it might not be a stretch to say they could be an upgrade.

I have my doubts we make any more deals. Fitt loves to trade but trading picks for bottom of the roster churn over and over doesn't really seem like it will net much for this cycle.

But, the dude did get draft picks for literally nobodies, so maybe he can pull another miracle.

Just now, La Pantera said:

We're only carrying two RBs and no PR. But hopefully we don't use future picks to fill those spots.

I feel like Bonnafon has done enough in the past and shown enough that if they were gonna carry 3 RB's they would have kept him. Keeping only 2 RB's when your stud was injured most of the season and his backup is a rookie worries me. I do like what I've seen out of Chuba a lot but....

 

...oh wait, I just remembered, RB is the one position where you can go find a guy on Monday from the street who can get you 4 yards a carry next Sunday. We're good.

I mean if you wanted to go tinfoil hat and throw out some wild scenarios, trading for Duane Brown is about the only one I could think of that could conceivably really happen.

I'm not expecting anything like that though.

    • The era that you played in, and, more importantly, who you played with actually matters. Honestly, that's why these issues will be debated forever, as it's just difficult to say that this person or that person is better when you're discussing the passage of time. As for me, after Rice, Moss and maybe Megatron and T.O., there's probably a dozen or so guys that can be argued about to the cows come home. Personally, I'm not putting Fitz, Harrison, Johnson, Evans, or especially D-Hop, Jefferson, Chase or Hill definitely in front of Smitty (and Colston ain't even in the discussion). Context and all that stuff actually matters. Things like the triple crown matter. 
    • Some of those guys? Yeah honestly you can.  I would 100% take Steve Smith over Larry Fitzgerald, Harrison, even Mike Evans. He is 100% a better player than those guys in his prime. If you look at the numbers Smith is historically under targeted in comparison to his contemporaries. He was only targeted 150 times or more only once in his career. Fitzgerald for example was targeted well above that 9 different seasons. Had Smith played with Peyton, Brady, Greatest Show on Turf, or even with Warner in Arizona he would broken records. His 2008 season was ridiculous accumulating 1400 yards in 13 games on less than 80 receptions. All time he also lost a season due to injury in 04, barely played WR as a rookie. Got robbed of 1k season with Clausen. Thats easily another 1800yds minimum that should have been tacked on to his #s. The only guys I’d say for certain are better than Smith are Rice, Moss, TO, Megatron, Julio Jones, Antonio Brown.
    • I parked in this lot a few times. It would take over and hour to get out of that lot after games. Never again
