Saints Players with Trade Value??

Personally If I was the GM I would want to make real sure that Will Smith's 09 contract demands aren't going to be fantasy land - if there's little chance of coming to terms with him, I'd stick him on the trading block now and get the best price possible for him.

I don't want to lose our best defender under any circumstances, but if he's gonna walk on a free (or potentially sulk as a franchise player for a year and then walk) there's little point in keeping him.

The FO must have a pretty good idea if they can afford him (and if they haven't they should all be fired) If he's gonna ask for too much then I'd be shopping him now. You'd have no shortage of 1st round pick offers for a proven player like Smith and there's always the chance of bringing in a decent replacement.
