doesn't hurt to listen... two first? sold...

if another team wants to be stupid, who are we to stand in their way?

It depends where those picks fall. I’m not sure two late firsts would be enough for me. Gonzalez seems to be a hit. If it’s the chiefs or Ravens guaranteed to be picking late, I’m asking for more.
 
I'd do it for a stupid haul. Like someone's whole draft class stupid.
"What the Vikings or Giants would have had to give up to get Maye" stupid?
 
Is it April 1st?
 
I'm sure Wolf did this after the phone ranf about Gonzalez.

The odds are that two firsts, unless both are in the top 5, turning up a single player of Gonzo's impact, are less than 50/50.
People overvalue draft picks. The math tells the truth.

I like Gonzo. its one of the three "untouchables" from what I have read... Maye, Gonzo & Barmore... but... There's always a but, isn't there?

I don't see what everyone else seems to see, a shut down corner. I see a good corner, not great. Maybe that changes as he gets better. He certainly has talent and will most likely grow into that promise. There is no denying that.

So maybe I'm off base, missing something. That could absolutely be the case. won't be the first time, won't be the last. You give me a couple 1's and I am trading him tomorrow. Or by tuesday the 5th. I don't expect anyone else to agree with me.

I think the Pats gotta ask for an active player with the draft picks for someone like Gonzo. Gonzo is still a prospect but he now has a track record in the league and it’s a pretty good one so far.

I would think they’d also have a good reason to trade Gonzo. I can’t think of any but maybe they would know something I don’t.

Oh I was so hoping someone would do this. I literally heard his voice say it as I typed it.

Thank you for making my morning.

Disagree Pape. Gonzalez is already showing that he can shut down the best receivers in football, and he hasn’t even played a full season of football. When you find players with that kind of upside you don’t let go of them. I wouldn’t take two firsts for him. They already used a first on him so that’s like trading him for a first round pick.
 
In principal, everyone's tradeable. Consider the Plunkett trade:

Jim Plunkett for Mike Haynes
Pete Brock
Tim Fox
Ray Clayborn
Horace Ivory
Tom Owen

Now, I don't trust Wolf to cobble together a deal like that but if he could I'd take it.
 


Start the bidding at 3 first rounders and a starting quality OT.

Hell NO! Guys been IMO an all pro caliber player in a year where the defense has taken massive blows. He's probably the 2nd best player on the team behind Drake. Stark differences between gonzo and Marcus hobbs.

I get what you are saying Ivan. Can't rightly disagree, no matter what I see or don't see.
