Why do we keep trading our FA acquisitions?

We turned a free agent signing that missed most of the offseason and likely wasn't going to start into the juice to boost swap a 7th round pick for a 6th instead of just cutting him. He was a low cost, high reward signing had he worked out. He didn't work out, but the team still got something out of him.

Dan Arnold was getting ~3 catches a game while Tommy Tremble has increasingly looked like the most complete TE on the roster. Another relatively cheap signing, the Jags are so desperate to get any type of pass catching TE on the roster that they sent the Panthers CJ Henderson and a 5th in exchange for Darnold and a 3rd.

A day two and day three pick + two guys that were not impact performers have been successfully converted into the 2020 9th overall selection and two day 3 picks. That's fuging impressive.

Oh yea, plus what we got for Greg Little. 😮

It's the Madden Strategy.

Pick up a player in the offseason, unload him for draft picks or better players. 

I do this every season in franchise. I also have no loyalty. Since I play all my games, I will trade a mfer so fast. For pics. I've also sabotaged a whole nother franchise just to get their pics.

Does trading Arnold open up more reps for Marshall? If so, then I like this trade even more. We need our young talent on the field. (Marshall, Tremble and Hubbard)

This is also a great point.  There was a Baldy breakdown posted this week of a CMC run where the line blocking wasn't too great, but CMC made something out of it.  His focus was on CMC . . . probably as it should be.

However, if you watch carefully, you can see Terrace Marshall just crushing some fool on the edge.  If you can't get fired up about your rookie receiver killing it in the run game you aren't doing the fan thing right.  I have no doubt if you ask TMJ to set an edge for an outside zone run, there WILL be an edge.

I’m not saying what we did was bad just asking. Thought it was something to talk about, also why aren’t we trying to make oline better. I mean with CMC out we are definitely in trouble to protect Sam

I talked about this in another thread, can't remember which one.  Basically, our front office and staff know we have an OLine problem.  They are professionals.  They see it.

The problem is that there just aren't very many good OL in the league.  Let's face it - Mike Remmers and Greg Van Roten *still play in the NFL*.  That should really tell you all you need to know about the amount of OL talent available.

Honestly, I'd rather pay more for the OL than WR's.  That money we gave Robby Anderson?  Yea, gimme a LT instead.  Please and thank you.  But those guys just aren't there.

We are trading players for assets and we already have depth to replace those players. 

Arnold was at his ceiling. Tremble can do the same things he was doing and more.

Perryman was garbage and I am glad we were able to get anything for him. Our 2nd coverage LB barely sees the field anyway. 

OL are not easy to find, half the league has questionable starters on their OL.

Maybe we can find someone that wants to trade for Elf next?

@BurnNChinndidn't read all the replies but you can't go just by individual stats. We have the #1 defense collectively. I am glad our defensive line is getting more tackles than our linebacker. That is a good thing. Also, we can't talk just about Perryman vs Carter. Everyone is doing their job so far on this defense. Look at your username. Chinn isn't having fantastic numbers, but I guarantee you he is a big reason that offenses have no clue what we are doing week to week.

      What do you grade this draft?

      By Newtcase · Posted

      I didn’t like this draft at all. XL, our first pick had one good season out of five and doesn’t have burst off the line.  I wanted Ladd here because I think he’d have been a much better pairing for BY9s weak arm.  We need to be an excellent west coast style offense if Bryce is gonna shine.  A burner that takes 3 steps to get moving and doesn’t separate at the line is a bad choice IMO. I don’t even want to talk about drafting a RB after having Foreman make us feel better about trading CMC only to send him packing and give Sanders top FA money last year to fall on his face.  We always try to get cute and find value.  The fact that we were the first team to take a RB (one recovering from a serious injury no less) tells you we didn’t get the memo 31 other teams got.  RB has a huge role in protection responsibility, it’s a huge reason some great backs are situational…they suck in protection.  A rookie RB helping protect BY doesn’t warm my heart.  We should have taken the top C on the board here IMO. LB and yet another project TE that’ll probably just frustrate us all for how long he hangs around seemingly doing nothing.  Then a bunch of dice rolls that aren’t changing any fortune unless it’s a complete accident. TLDR This whole draft looks like JAGs to me at best.  I don’t like the XL or JB picks at all.  Always happy to be wrong when I have a negative take.

      Sugar Defender Supplement - What You Should Be Aware In Update 2024

      I'll tell you how you should benefit from using this in a moment. However, things are alright now. You might have to be really skilled to use their find effectively. I'm not the most ideal customer when it is put alongside that condition. Here are the pros. I put my foot in my mouth. I had high expectations. We'll face up to reality. My notion is based around my assumption that nobody has a partiality concerning doing that. There is a culture that has been built around some hindrance and also you should understand how some command will impact your life. Really honestly, if you actually reckon about it, how good is that stuff? Whenever somebody experiences the doohickey, it is best that they do not hesitate to talk to a professional.    OFFICIAL WEBSITE ----> https://www.onlymyhealth.com/sugar-defender-reviews-blood-sugar-supplement-complaints-1709036624   Go Down For More Info:-   https://www.onlymyhealth.com/puravive-reviews-side-effects-and-complaints-1709979035 https://www.onlymyhealth.com/fitspresso-reviews-coffee-loophole-recipe-dangerous-side-effects-and-complaints-1710235827   https://medium.com/@lancebrum/sugar-defender-buyer-beware-heres-the-real-story-must-read-cfbe26c6a174 https://hackmd.io/@lancebrum/SugarDefender https://www.eventogo.com/event/sugar-defender-supplement-what-you-should-be-aware-in-update-2024/ https://www.techdirectory.io/new-york/adtech/sugar-defender https://gamma.app/docs/Sugar-Defender-Buyer-Beware-Heres-The-Real-Story-Must-Read-7vy0ew8b8doq9hm https://jciodev.microsoftcrmportals.com/forums/general-discussion/59f21551-e405-ef11-a81c-6045bd0b2619 https://pgccouncilcsp.powerappsportals.us/forums/general-discussion/604e7f79-e405-ef11-a73d-001dd806eee4 https://thecontingent.microsoftcrmportals.com/forums/general-discussion/5f1e49b0-e405-ef11-a73d-6045bd01c1cc https://twor.microsoftcrmportals.com/forums/support-forum/1bf52a1d-e505-ef11-a73d-6045bd3fd1cb
