NFL Live: Dre Bly Rumors

Just saw yet another London Fletcher is as good as signed report on NFL Live but the additional comments were more interesting. Smith stated that we are going to make a trade with the Lions for Dre Bly.

Here's the question, who do we trade. My guess would be Arch, giving him a chance to get back with Mike Martz. Any thoughts fellas?

like I said before...I'm not really sure what all we have TO trade...this better not be that stupid Portis crap again. No way we are trading him.

I like Bly, but I haven't heard rumors of him coming here (not lately)

Well we can afford to trade Arch but it would be a mighty big hit and really limit our ability to do much else. Maybe a few moves if structured right. I tend to think they are planning on giving Arch one more shot. Get a little value from him and then maybe ditch him next year if all hope is lost. I am willing to give the guy another shot as long as the coaches are on board with using him in the best way possible. Bly doesn't seem like like a guy we'd take a huge cap hit to get even if dumping Arch was part of it.

I doubt Arch has ANY trade value right now and it'd be a cap killer to deal him. We don't have the picks to trade to get Bly (unless they want a 5th rounder) and the only player commodity we have is Betts who I don't see us dealing.. I call BS on this rumor.

What do we trade? Knowing us - the 6th pick, our 5th rounder, and Betts for Bly.

Actually, thinking about it. If they do pull the trigger on this one, probably Betts and a late rounder for Bly (not saying it's a good trade, just saying it might be possible).

right now, I think Betts is worth more than Bly...if anything, I would hope they would give us picks

betts or a WR is all we have to offer... unless they want a huge contract like springs has. betts and patten have easily moveable contracts. If fletcher is our big signing, we'll need that #6 pick for DL, and we won't have nearly enough for clements after that (unless you want to completely blow up the team in 2 years), so it makes sense we're looking for a trade. bly's pretty solid, but generally GW wants tackling CBs, and he's more coverage.

Betts is more of a Joe Gibbs style running back. Betts has the potential of being a Stephen Davis.... Portis can't handle the North & South running.

Isn't Bly over 30 by now? If so, I'd be against the move as we are already brining in a vet over 30 who is expected to start.
