Why? Why the hell wouldn't you add a guy (for the right draft pick) that could add pass rushing and LB depth at a $300k cap hit for the rest of year and has a roster option that would make him a $2.6m cap hit next year if you decide to pick it up or gets you a comp pick and no cap hit if you decide not to pick it up
I'm sure Lombardi is trying like hell to convince Bill to get him.
Also I want to see a QB **** his pants at the sight of Jones, Sheard, Easley, Hightower, Collins and Mingo rushing like mad men on a 3rd and long.
I'm going to go out on a limb and predict that the Patriots don't make a trade. I don't get the same sense of panic from the team that I get from the fans.
Mingo's roster bonus is guaranteed. It goes to the new team if traded, but a team still has to pay it even if they cut him. Outside of a scenario where the Pats trade for him and then trade him away later, they'd be commiting to the full 1.5 seasons at $2.9 million right away. Still not awful, but it's not completely risk free in 2016.Mingo.

I don't think you need to be in panic mode to make a trade you think will better the team.
Seems like a reasonable flier to take. What is his contract situation?
thats a great trade for denver for no cost mostly. could really fix their offense even further. Not too thrilled about this as a pats fan although davis has shown no interest here in SF , he might be better with manning.
He's been terrible since Colin Kaepernick took over at QB for the 49ers.Is Davis still good? He's had a terrible season.
Does anyone really think Davis is an upgrade over Julius Thomas? Davis isn't going to magically fix Denver's offense, especially late in the season.
I'm comparing him to Thomas on last year's team, which was better offensively and still got bounced early.He's an upgrade over Owen Daniels, who they have now.
I don't think he "magically fixes" everything, but he helps them and doesn't hurt them. For what will probably end up being, essentially, a 7th round pick? He's fine.
