The deadline to make a trade is set for next week. I do not mean to spark any talk about crazy trade proposals (i.e. Ramsey and Arrington for a 1st and 3rd round draft pick), but the topic is thread-worthy.

The only possible trade that I think might warrant some consideration is a trade for Chargers guard Toniu Fonoti. The NFL Network has reported that Fonoti is on the market. Fonoti is perhaps the league's best young guard and the word on the street is that he could be obtained at a bargain price (mid-round draft pick). However, he is coming off an injury, is in the last year of his rookie contract, and will command a ton of dollars.

Although Derrick Dockery has potential, I have yet to see him develop into a very good offensive giard. I can come up with a lot of reasons why he should not be replaced, but Fonoti is an interesting player. What do you think?
