Ok maybe this doesn’t need its own thread but the deadline is 5 weeks away. I know the next couple weeks will determine if we are buyers but let’s say we get to 5-2 do we make a move?

I really wish we still had Jakobi here but it sounds like a few guys might be available…

Brian Thomas Jr
Marvin Harrison Jr
Jerry Jeudy

Thoughts?

We should be trading now. Either getting rid of players or bringing them in.

Unpopular opinion: no, we should not be trading.

There is one way out of the mire that this organization is in and that's drafting smartly and correctly. At this stage there is talent on this team. And that talent that is here? We need every bit of it, whether they are here or not five years from now (for instance).

While it feels great to say "trade Maxx" that weakens us short term and creates no guarantees longer term.

We need to get to a point where we are rewarding our draft picks with a second contract because they have played well enough to warrant it. As of right now? Its seems the only place that seems to pick up our cast offs is New Orleans.

Note: As much as I wanted Nelson at guard it was not the right move (he was never going to come here anyway.)

Mine only issue with the 2 colts trades is we still play both teams who just got even better.

We will be 9 point underdogs instead of 8 point underdogs

0-2 for sure
