Re: Do we have anyone we can off-load for Picks.

First player that comes to mind is Cornelius Griffin. He always seems to be bothered by injuries so he never plays at 100%. We'd be just as good with Montgomery and Golston starting. Betts, Collins, Sellers, have a lot of value but we shouldn't trade them.

There's nobody I want to see traded other than Loyd, which would be a miracle if someone were to bite on. I'm sure there are a few guys we could value for, but I wonder if it would be enough to justify it.

I think the capologists are best to answer this one.
Springs at 7mil?? Ouch.

Re: Do we have anyone we can off-load for Picks.

Outside of Betts, I can't see anyone we could/would deal that would garner much of a pick. We're obviously not going to trade Landry, Campbell, Cooley, Portis, Moss.. Those are probably the only players that we could get anything significant (3rd round or higher) for and they're not going anywhere.

Dude.. Punctuation and paragraphs are your friends.

Redskins should've traded Brunell this past season, I think Atlanta wanted him when they were desperate for a QB after Vick was out.

Re: Do we have anyone we can off-load for Picks.

mk... trade betts, griffin, and mcintosh.

betts and mcintosh for the #1 to miami. Ricky Williams wont produce.

#1-#21

use 21 for that FS from Miami, I forget his name right now cause im smacked, but he's what that pick should be used for. use #1 for a CB, or even a WR.

Trade Griffin for an extra 2nd round.... late probably. draft o line from then on out. we still got Khary, Washington, and Fletcher. HB is going to be solid, and if Godfrey stays, we have all the depth we need at LB. We could get that #1 from Parcells for Betts and McIntosh. Everyone says Ladell isn't as productive, but Parcells is a smart guy. He would use Ladell as his work horse, and make the HC develop the offense around his running style. I know that would work, excusing all the cap stuff blazayblah...


Also, if we get a stud CB, we can hang/maim/shoot/trade/lynch Carlos Rogers. He is fast, and I'm sure someone in the league sees potential. Trade him for a pick next year, or some depth at DL.

anyone with real trade value is someone you wouldn't want to trade.

hoping this isn't serious, but if you threw portis and moss in, those FOUR together wouldn't get you the #1 pick.

but while we're at it, let's trade lloyd for CJ.

I think once you get to the point where he says "right now I'm smacked" that's the cue to disregard his entire post.

And did you forget about Ronnie Brown... They already got their running back. And those two positions are the most easy pos's to fill in the draft...

meanwhile:
patrick ramsey for A.O. (chi DE)... OOPS!
mcintosh for lance briggs (chi LB)... oops.

so, i'd say our ownership overvalues its unproven players a bit too much.
That is exactly why i was lobbying to trade Betts last season while his value was high. and before everyone found out that he can not be a full time back and he as fumble problems.

Now we cant trade for shizzy!

Re: Do we have anyone we can off-load for Picks.

Randle El is trade bait. Yea, he is good, but he is grossly overpaid. I think we can do without him, and by trading him that will free up some space for a free agent splash ( Mark my words, we will need one good one this offseason - trust me).

If we were to go after Roy Williams, Larry Fitzgerlad, or Moss (if he doesnt want to return), we would need cap room. And not that I am a Gm or anything, but it is illogical in the salary cap era to have so much of yoiur cap allocated to one position (e.g. Detroit). If we kept S. Moss and ARE and then tried to draft a receiver in the 1st or get on via free agency, we would essentially be loking up a hefty percentage of our cap at the WR postion. That will come back to haunt us.

I love ARE, but we can trade him, open up cap space, and get a draft pick in the process. Remember that ARE was part of Gibbs doing, and we need to start undoing some of Joe Gibbs organized chaos.

The real question is what could we get for ARE that we could live with, and in doing so who would you draft with that pick?
