Hence the /s for sarcasm.

I wonder if the Dolphins would accept any of our pieces of shit if it would slightly lower the 1st round price tag.

Like, we've got 10 offensive linemen. Trade them Erving. Advertise him as the ultimate depth OL to have on your team, able to play just about any position, gritty locker room guy, etc.

Only problem is breaking the news to him that he's been traded to Miami. Can't imagine that would go well.

Start at the low end and see if they'll bite. Try for Erving and a 3rd. Might be crazy enough to work.

I was thinking of including Ragland, especially since they dumped Kiko Alonso. The problem with that is Reid seems to only trade players into half-decent situations which Miami is not. So I can't see us actually sending a player to a place players are trying to escape. Although, that would be my first option.

trade them lucas back? and ragland and the 9ers pick? jk kinda if they would do it i would do it..

2nd for Fitz. Fuller and a 4th for Bouye.

There we go. That's a damn good secondary.

why would the jags even interrupt what they have for that?

Megatron96 09-13-2019 12:58 PM

Couple questions:

Is there any reason Fitzpatrick couldn't be converted into a true CB? The guy apparently has sub-4.4 speed, and if he lost just 5-7 lbs. he'd be a legit 4.35-4.38 guy. And wasn't he a true corner at Alabama?

Does anyone think this guy isn't better than the CBs we are fielding now? Excepting Mo Claiborne, as he hasn't been on the field yet.

As for the trading picks thing, unless this season goes completely off the rails, we're looking at picking somewhere south of 29th, right? Basically a second round pick. Not going to get anything good at CB at 29th on down. If Miami will take our 1st round pick, why wouldn't we do that?

For the foreseeable future I'm guessing the only way we get a pick north of 20 is by trading a player for it.

thats where 90% of us are with this. but it would be hard to commit that kind of capital to "convert" anything.

Bouye was rumored to be a cap casualty this past offseason. There's a chance he's cut after this year. He'll be almost 30.

If they have a shit start I don't see why they wouldn't trade him.

Gotcha, thx.

But are we really "converting" him, or are we really just returning him to his natural position? Wasn't he the 7th best CB in the draft?

Im not saying we are, I know little to nothing about his college career or pro career at that. It would depend on how the chiefs see him in my opinion. If they feel like hes a safety who plays corner and needs schooled up thats one thing, if they feel hes a corner who plays the middle too because hes just a killer thats a whole other thing.

If they plan on releasing him this offseason it's very possible.

Mile High Mania 09-13-2019 01:29 PM

Believe Denver has about $11M or so in space after moving Flacco's numbers around, they could certainly use Minkah. Send them another DB, 2020 R2 and some other pick and call it a day.
