Nah, Jake is just fine and everyone praises him for everything he does and still offers your team. I've said multiple things about Jake's bad side and people flip out. Hope you don't mean what your saying DT28 as there will be some unhappy people who'd like to have a word with you.

Coach Ken Whisenhunt said Wednesday that the Cardinals are willing to listen to any trade offers for Anquan Boldin.

Whiz says Arizona's "goal" is to keep Boldin long term, but admits the team would be "foolish...not to listen to those opportunities." "We just think it is prudent for us to evaluate all our options," GM Rod Graves added. Graves says he's already spoken to some teams, but wouldn't elaborate. The Cards are expected to ask for at least first- and third-round picks in any trade.

Thats what I read on the subject.

Peppers for Boldin seems like a terrible idea to me. DLine is already the weakest part of our team and with Pep gone it would be a HUGE concern. Add in the fact that we are a run first offense and Boldin wouldn't even be our #1 WR. If we do end up trading Pep, we need to do it for some draft picks and then use those picks to retool the DLine.

Not really a long-term solution. I'd wait until Delhomme's retirement before spending too much on the passing game.

So if you can't upgrade every position don't upgrade any position?

Ridiculous :nonod:

Peppers for Boldin is likely as close as I'd come to a straight up swap, but I'd probably still want more (which means it wouldn't happen).

I pretty much agree with what Mike Mayock was quoted as saying in the Observer. Although I'd also admit that getting anything in return is still better than nothing, I still want good value.

For the last time, we have a dumbass at QB. No need to add another WR when the ball is going to be thrown at the other team. Besides, we have other needs.

Yep. Let's just give up on improving anything until we get a new QB.

(thank God this team doesn't listen to fans) :rolleyes:

      Myles Garrett Traded to Rams

      I feel like this trade just lives rent free in people's heads and keeps morphing into different things. First thing is that the rumored trade was for future firsts. They wouldn't have any extra picks in 2023; the firsts would have been for 2024 and 2025. With very few exceptions, NFL GMs don't value picks that far away. You have to have a lot of job security to pull that off. Like Chiefs, Eagles, Rams kinda stability. That's obviously not the case with David Tepper, especially since he'd just fired his head coach. No GM except for like Howie Roseman is going to trade an asset you have now for a future asset you probably get to use.  Second, at the time you'd have to assume these are first rounders late in the first round. Obviously currency is currency and the panthers need young players, but these weren't slam dunk top ten picks. At the end of the day there's one pick that separates a first and second round pick.  Lastly, the only place that ever reported this trade was the Rams. All the reporters just repeated what McVay said and it became gospel. We have no idea how serious the negotiations were, if they ever really happened, if the offer was real, etc. And I personally believe McVay and Sneed are the kind of guys who would make up rumors like that to fug up other teams, mostly because I assume if I've thought of it someone smarter than me has.  I don't know how you'd call it the greatest draft haul of all time. Firsts quickly lose their value the farther out they are and Burns had 16.5 sacks last season. And anyway those picks would probably just been tossed into the burning inferno of the Bryce trade up so it's a moot point anyway.
