was the armanti edwards trade the worst in franchise history?

[lymelizzard]

yup, it was a PR move.

[frash.exe]

bad but not astronomically bad

the gilbert trade was bad on a scale of solar proportions

[DR_DIGH]

most definitely

you do NOT trade draft picks with the patriots, they're whole success is built on picking on the retard kids in april

There's no way to make even an educated guess as to this situation. You can't base one season (especially this one) on the outcome of how a trade will turn out for a player that is as diversed as Edwards. Give him a chance, if he sucks when we actually put him on the field, then make a decision. You are pulling the trigger way too early.

It's not the worst in franchise history...

Right now...I think we all sorta acknowledge that it was a bad trade. But, I actually believe it has the POTENTIAL to be the worst in our franchise history.

But...some crazy stuff has to go on like us cutting AE next season, the Patriots using that pick to scoop up an excellent rookie that we could have got, and we try to overcompensate for that mishap by doing something stupid like trading another 1st for a 2nd round pick and that blowing up in our faces...

I don't know how you judge a player that hasn't been allowed to play at all.

Is it still a bad play if he turns into like Brad Smith?

You simply cannot judge a draft pick after one season.

This thread is one of the worst ever though. Congrats for that.

[Punisher]

So let me get this straight SMF.

Let's say Edwards is worth nothing.

Would you rather have a average player (Gilbert) and a second round pick

OR

Would you rather have nothing and two first round picks?:yesnod:

Sean Gilbert /thread

1 of the 1st we gave up for Sean Gilbert, New Orleans/Ditka ended up trading the farm to get Ricky Williams with.

that paticular 1st was very valuable.

Thank God Ditka isn't calling the shots at GM, but we got the next best thing, a Marty Hurnia.

Hey Hurney,

Give me two starting DTs in FA and we will forget about that whole AE/2nd pick thing.

Thanks

1. Way too early to say that its the worst pick in panther history, you gotta give every player 3 years to say bust or not... on top of that WR's generally take 2-3 years to take off and he's one making a switch.

2nd. We have no idea what kind of player AE can be or what he will become... he could be a bust or he could be Smitty #2.

3rd. Who does NE take with the pick, do they turn out to be a good player?????? Another unknown variable here.... What if the NE pick is a Bust......
