Regardless of how either team ends the season, it won't be a one pick trade up due to comp picks.

We really had no leverage in this and it sucks.

  • He isn't under contract next season
  • We weren't going to extend him
  • He was in a position to demand more money than he's worth due to our poor overall roster structure
  • He wasn't exactly lighting the world on fire aside from the Oakland game
  • He's on tape giving up on numerous routes and refusing to block
  • Letting him walk in FA would NOT have resulted in a comp pick due to us needing to fill out the roster by signing a FA in the offseason. It would offset the comp pick formula.
  • Team is overall dogshit so there was no point in keeping him when we have young guys on the roster to try to develop in Legette and Coker.

I wanted more like everyone else but I get why that's the best offer we got.

Hard to believe the best offer we could get was a 5th rounder for a 6th rounder and Johnson... At that point, might as well just release him and let him go to whatever team he wants because we literally gained zero value from this trade.

And it's trades like this that make it easy to understand why we are and have been the worst team in the NFL for several years

There is no way you could ever convince me this was the best option.  Especially considering kirk and diggs just went down

People getting upset about this trade expected wayyyy too much. We had no leverage. What did yall expect?

honestly this should have been expected. 

I don't know... A trade that resulted in us getting more than 1 pick that is six spots better than what our 6th rounder would have been...

We honestly just need to nuke this entire franchise. Cut all the players, fire all the staff (from coach to coordinators to position coaches to medical staff to anyone else), and just completely start anew. We need to get the shitstains that are our players and coaches off this team.

Unfortunately our cuck owner can't fire himself, but the next best thing is just getting rid of literally everyone else, forfeit every game the next few years, and see if we can draft some winners with someone that hasn't been a part of this dumpster fire the past half decade

    • I am gonna believe it wasn’t us if the 4th round pick price is accurate. We needed 225 points to get from 19 to their pick. 875 at 19 to 1100 at 14.  Our 2026 4th was valued at 56 points I think. A future 4th has less value. So that wasn’t close to enough.    It would have taken our third and our fourth. Comes within a point of even.    Now, moving to their spot in the second round we could have done but after Miami took Rodriguez why would we? 
    • Yep,and Blake Miller have had more experiences than Freeling,Lions did not sigh a vet T like Walker,so they had to pick Miller.
    • I mean it's expected.  This is the NBA.  And they hate the Charlotte Hornets.  Flagg was also the guy "magically" given to the Mavs who lost Luca to the wildly popular Lakers.  Was always an uphill battle.  But the award is BS since it's not voted on before play-in starts. Kon probably lost because of the play-in as many people switched votes.  It was a regular season award, so this is some nonsense.  Kon also didn't have the luxury of taking 10 games off to rest up injuries like Flagg did.  If he did, he wouldn't have been nursing his back the last month.  I mean, screw him for being on an actual playoff team that matters.  Flagg took tons of shots a game, he was wildly inefficient.  Kon was a huge reason the Hornets made the play-in and turned the season around after Jan.   I think Flagg will probably be the better player long term, or at least the most impact.  But Kon should have won ROTY.
