Default CB Antonio Cromartie to hit trading block...

Per KFFL ::

Quote:
Kevin Acee, of The San Diego Union-Tribune, reports a league source said the San Diego Chargers will put CB Antonio Cromartie on the trading block if they are able to sign free-agent CB Drayton Florence (Jaguars).

Okay I admit he stunk last year but this is a big WTF to me.

Florence is not anything better.

Something or someone is smoking something, and I'm thinking it was Cromartie.

Buyer beware on this one.

Antonio Cromartie Played Season With A Broken Hip - San Diego Chargers, NFL

Apparently Cromartie had a busted hip in 2008. IF his health checks out, I wouldn't be averse to offering a 2nd round pick for him. The Chargers look like they are in rebuilding mode or something.

Looks like the Chargers were unhappy with his performance. I still find it mysterious that he drops off so suddenly after an outstanding 2007 campaign.

One I would not like to see.

I am just throwing it out there, Peppers has been linked to just about every trade imagineable.

Something smells here. Cromartie was all-world in 2007. His poor 2008 may partially be due to injury, and partially due to lack of SD's pass rush with Merriman being out, but it's absolutely shocking that he could go form being considered one of the top CBs in football to on the trading block in one season. It makes me wonder if there is some serious issue (medical or personal) with him.

LT is washed up, Cromartie's health status is questionable and Peppers is a 17.3M cap hit.

Meanwhile the Chargers only have 18M of cap space available.

That would be an awful tight cap fit.

Due investigation has to be done before exploring a trade for Cromartie. But if he checks out healthy and sane, he would be a great pickup. I've never heard of him having TO mental instabilities so... in BB we trust.

Cromartie does have Antoine Cason behind him and the Chargers also have Jammer. One of them will have to go sometime, why not trade the one who would get the most in return?
