jason whitlock said trade teddy (1 Viewer)

[sidwin]

very reminiscent of pats trading garopolo. jason said trade him while his stock is high 5-0 to a team for a top 7 corner and get a first round because drew wants to play till 45....

whitlock said since teddy is a UFA next year anyway and his stock is high... brees is back we would be crazy to not entertain calls.

1st rounder and top 5 player.... miami, chicago, are a couple of teams they said would want teddy.....

man so hard to think about that but to be honest if this was last year it would be a no brainer. i was one of the first said we needed to trade for teddy and all my friends thought i was nuts considering what we gave up to get him and how much we paid for him this year.

Um No.

Funny I had this as a fleeting thought at some point during yesterday’s game. It’d be the only way to get something for Teddy since he’s gonna walk in March anyway, and deservedly so I hope he gets paid big.

Who is going to give up that much for an unsigned player?

 

[Saint Kamara]

Totally agree.

You just strike while the iron is hot.

And this is the highest TB's stock is gonna get after roasting an excellent Bears defense.

Get someone who will help you win a Super bowl.

Wait, the trade is TB for a top corner and a first rounder? I would do that in a New York second.

OHIO STATE

the bears....
colin cowherd just called it
With that defense and those skills.... they can still save their season.

The Rams just did something similar for Ramsey. It's not impossible.

The “trade and sign” doesn’t happen for QBs in mid season. Their cost/value/need is too high for any potential starting QB to not test the open market.

We will get a 3rd round compensatory pick when he leaves..

Unless Chicago would offer Roquan Smith and a 1st, then I keep the best backup in the league

Drew is going to be playing with a brace after the trade deadline. I say don't cash out the insurance policy

Ramsey has another year left, Teddy would be a half season rental.

At the trade deadline, the teams buying players about to be free agents are contenders - otherwise it makes no sense.

How many contenders need a QB so badly that they would trade a first round pick to get one? I can’t think of one team in that situation right now. Chiefs avoided that scenario with Mahomes injury. Who else?

 

[sidwin]

a part of me is so happy for teddy. i've watched him play for a while and he's just a great dude. when i said we needed him when he was with the jets, i saw how he carved up the defense saying... wow we need a backup like that.

bittersweet indeed. he's going to get paid but the bears would be a very good fit for him. but to get a 1st rounder and top player.... saints have a relationship with ryan pace the GM at chicago....it wouldn't surprise me... 9 more days before deadline.....

So you're the GM and they offer you a 1st. Or they offer you Roquan. You not taking either offer?

You'd rather a QB sitting on the bench that we won't be able to sign next year instead?
