NFL Trade Deadline Discourse

They can have Kyle Williams if we thought about such a move young Guy with upside.

If Henry's running worse like he is now (if my theory is correct), you may as well sign some dude off his couch.

D Henry is not the problem in Baltimore: injuries have decimated them. You with me Tommy??

 

[TommyD4207]

Really so if we had a chance to get A.J. Brown and ask to throw in Kyle Williams you wouldn't?? I know about the Contract but getting a True #1 WR you would pass?? I'm glad you're not the GM Tommy.

Kyle Williams is 22 years old and costs a million dollars, under team control for the next 3.5 seasons.

I know it's not what the Cult of Verticality would do.

I'm with you, and I'm watching. He's absolutely part of the problem. He had A great game, a good game, and fell off a cliff, production-wise.

Ok because KW have A.J. Brown's ceiling. There's a KW in every Draft as long as Wolf ain't shopping for the groceries.

One in every draft. A crapshoot. Thirty two teams vying to roll the dice, with a high probability of the rookie crapping out once drafted. Worst way they can crap out is putting up big numbers on the field while poisoning the franchise with their toxicity.

Which Defense in the NFL Today could Stop A.J. Brown - S Diggs - K Boutte and H Henry??

Who's toxic??

Any good zone team with a big-time pass rush.

Trading for a running back makes the most sense, as it probably doesn't cost a ton and is our main need on offense. I don't think Henry has the tread left at this point. Kamara would be interesting, but I could see the Saints wanting to keep him as one of the few stars left on that team.

I disagree with your take on D Henry: Players HC Mike Vrabel should know more.

I think I trust Vrabel's instincts either way on it. He had the guy for a couple years, after all, he knows if he's still got anything in the tank or not.

Thank you Tommy.

I think the FO owes it to the guys on the team to add some pieces at the deadline that would help give us an extra push going into the late stages of the season. If it means giving up a 3rd rd pick this year and or a pick next year, then so be it.

this is what fans and media always say.

On average, how many trades per team are made? 1/2, 1, 2?

And, at least in the prior to the prior coaching staff, it was for random role players who were available for cheap, rather than needs we were looking to fill.

I would put S, Edge, CB, RB on the list before WR.

RB gotta be #1 Winter is coming.

The WRs we have are, collectively, better than the group of Patten, Brown, Charles Johnson, torrance Small, Bert Emanuel, and Curtis Jackson. The TEs in Henry and Hooper are better receives than Wiggins and Rutledge but not better blockers. Westover is not Marc Edwards. Neither RBs are equal to Antowain Smith, Kevin Faulk, Patrick Pass, and JR Redmond. But, Henderson has the potential to be a bigger play-maker.

An upgrade on the Edge over Jennings, Chaisson, or Keion White might be possible, but who of the names bandied around are solid setting the edge, but also rushing the Passer? The only one available who fits that is Jaelen Phillips. I don't see Miami giving him up.

Cam Jordan is 36. Arden Key is ok against the run, but hasn't generate much in the Pass rush. Kingsley Enagbare is really just a sub guy and no better than what we have. Thibodeaux misses too many tackles.

Dre'mont Jones from the Titans might be of interest. Boye Mafe could also be of interest. Both are set to be UFA next year.

I hate when people do this. The 2001 Pats won with weak "weapons". There have been isolated teams to win with bad OL. The Ravens won with Dilfer at QB. We won a SB with Troy Brown at nickel CB. You shouldn't pick out weak examples of teams that won and use that as something to emulate.
