Mark Barron via Trade?

[Sean Payton's Vicodin]

You guys know that Barron is considered a bust right

 

so was mike mitchell after he left oakland.

 

edit: frash beat me to it

 

regardless, he is infinitely better than harper.

So was Mike Mitchell

True but I think a lot of ppl forget we moved Mike to Fs. That's where he shined

Yea but at the same time you can't necessarily blame a player who is on a horrible team for being a bust. Is Barron worth the top ten pick the bucs spent to get him? No. But he'd be a value contributor if we could snag him for a late conditional pick. You know, their loss is our gain type of thing. The only problem really is that being a divisional rival, we'd have to outbid the other teams to have a chance of getting him. If that weren't the case, he'd be a solid trade. You just can't find his physical tools in the late rounds. He's one of those guys that you can see doing a lot better with some talent around him. He's not a player like Eric Berry who is going to ball out regardless.

I doubt Lovie trades him to us regardless of the pick we could offer.  It's one thing if they release a guy and he signs within the division.  They didn't think enough to keep him and would have no control over that.  They're not going to want to send a guy with the inside knowledge he has to a division rival, lol.  The only intra-division trade I remember ever happening was McNabb and you saw how well that turned out. 

 

 

Why do these threads keep popping up?  LOL.

I get that. My original post was more for ppl saying we should give up a second or a third. Than the Mike Mitchell thing was used and I was showing he had to move positions to be good.

Mitchell was a product of our front 4. Mitchell was and is awful in pass coverage.

Well you're writing off a 3rd year safety who's already had 2 different guys back there with him. The transition for a safety from college to the NFL is already a tough one.

Barron is still on his rookie contract, and he'd replace Harper. We need to draft a safety anyway, this wouldn't be a terrible move

I'll give a 4th

you stated an opinion as if it were fact on mitchell.

 

and i wasn't writing off a 3rd year safety. I was calling him a bust because technically he is. He was a top 10 pick and people want to trade a 2nd or 3rd rounder for him? that's not writing him off that's not getting screwed in a deal.

 

Like frash said i would have absolutely no problem trading for him as long as it wasn't that high of a pick.

[Hammerin'Cameron34]

I hope we make a move

[JawnyBlaze]

A first round pick on him is a bust, a bad deal. A third round pick on him is not a bad deal. I don't get what's hard to comprehend. It's a matter of value. Third round pick isn't that high of a price...I'd like it better if it cost a 4th or 5th, but I wouldn't be mad if they trade d as high as a 3rd.

4M cap hit, almost 5 next season.

 

 

Not sure that I would make this move, but to each his own.

Just envisioning a Mark Barron/Tre Boston safety tandem gets me turnt up, Boston was in position on every snap he played last week and even on the TD he gave up it was solid coverage. With a little more experience he bats that pass away or gets the INT to seal the deal.

Tre Boston was not in good position on the touchdown to the tight end.
